1. Horizontal and vertical Cable Manager
This is the most common type, usually designed with a long strip structure and adjustable plastic or metal finger separators. Horizontal managers are suitable for horizontal cable arrangement in cabinets or racks. Their open channels facilitate parallel wiring and are suitable for fixing short-distance jumpers or connecting cables between devices. Vertical managers are used for vertical wiring scenarios on the sides of racks or walls. Cables are stacked vertically through a layered buckle design to avoid cable sagging caused by gravity. They are commonly used in vertical management of trunk cables in data centers.
2. Ladder cable manager
It adopts a multi-layer ladder structure design, with each layer equipped with an independent partition board, which is suitable for high-density cable distribution scenarios. Its advantage is strong scalability. It can flexibly adapt to wiring needs of different scales by increasing or decreasing the number of layers. It is often used for the diversion management of a large number of cables in telecommunications rooms or industrial control cabinets. The special angle design of the ladder rack can also reduce the cable bending radius, which meets the cable bending requirements of wiring standards such as TIA/EIA.
3. Cable management ring
It is composed of flexible plastic or metal rings, which can be freely combined into a chain structure and is suitable for dynamic wiring environments. The management ring allows for the rapid addition and removal of cables, which is particularly suitable for temporary wiring scenarios that require frequent changes, such as conference rooms or test laboratories. Its modular design supports the independent fixing of single cables to avoid heat dissipation problems caused by bundled binding, and the ring structure can effectively prevent cable sliding.
4. Modular stereo manager
A three-dimensional management component developed for complex wiring systems, usually composed of spliced plastic grid units. This type is suitable for space-constrained areas such as the top or bottom of the cabinet, and realizes multi-dimensional cable routing through stereo networking. Its advantage is that it visualizes the wiring path planning and facilitates the physical isolation of cross-cables. It is often used for precision wiring management of medical imaging equipment or audio and video systems.
Cable manager material and scene adaptation recommendations:
In humid or chemically corrosive industrial environments, it is recommended to use stainless steel vertical managers; for regular office wiring, plastic ladder racks with flame retardant functions can be given priority. For rack installation in earthquake-prone areas, metal cable rings with shockproof buckles should be selected to enhance structural stability. When making actual selection, factors such as cable type (such as optical fiber requires a larger bending radius) and air flow and heat dissipation requirements need to be considered comprehensively.
