3. Installation
Note: Prior to installation, you must install the SRCABLETRAY accessory (sold separately) on each enclosure that will be linked by the SRCABLELADDER18
accessory. For ordering information, visit www.tripplite.com.
3.1 Planning
SRCABLELADDER18 can provide enclosure-to-enclosure cable routing across an aisle or within a single row. You can combine multiple
SRCABLELADDER18 and SRCABLETRAY accessories to meet the cable routing needs of almost any configuration of SmartRack Enclosures,
but planning and measurement are required to ensure a secure fit. Tripp Lite recommends that you read the entire manual in advance to
gain a clear understanding of the installation process and accessory positioning.
Sample Cable Routing Configuration (Top View)
Use a tape measure to determine the distance that SRCABLELADDER18 will bridge. (Preassembling the ladder sections will allow you to
observe their attachment points in place for a more accurate measurement.)
The standard length of SRCABLELADDER18 is 10 feet. If the standard length and the distance between attachment points differ, adjusting
the position of the SRCABLETRAY accessories will allow you to change the distance between attachment points. If necessary, you can use a
single ladder section instead of two sections, reducing the overall ladder length to approximately 5 feet. In addition, the assembly brackets
at the ends of the ladder sections will allow minor adjustments if you install them without pins, and you can add a few inches to the length
of the ladder by using the alternate pin holes for assembly. If the available adjustments will not accommodate the SRCABLELADDER18
accessory, you must cut one of the ladder sections. See Section 3.2 Ladder Modification for instructions. If the SRCABLELADDER18
accessory will fit without modification, proceed to Section 3.3 Ladder Assembly.
