5. Operating and Cable Routing

The WMPV45E provides dedicated pathways for cables, ensuring proper bend radius and reducing cable stress. It supports both front and rear cable management.

  1. Front Cable Management: Route patch cords and equipment cables through the front fingers of the manager. Utilize the open slots to guide cables horizontally to their respective equipment ports.
  2. Rear Cable Management: For managing bulk cables or equipment cables that need to be routed to the rear of the rack, use the rear channels of the manager. The design allows for segregation of different cable types if desired.
  3. Cable Bundling: Use cable ties or hook-and-loop fasteners (not included) to bundle cables neatly within the manager's channels and fingers. Avoid over-tightening cable ties, which can damage cables.
  4. Maintain Bend Radius: Always ensure that cables maintain their minimum bend radius to prevent signal degradation and cable damage. The manager's design assists in maintaining proper bend radius.
