Double-Sided Vertical Cable Manager High Density Finger Duct VFM Series

Double-sided vertical cable manager designed for high-capacity cable routing on both sides of open frame racks.

Key Features and Benefits

  • 16-gauge steel frame with high-density finger duct design supports significantly higher cable volume capacity in high-density environments.
  • Double-sided cable channels provide front and rear cable routing, maximizing cable capacity without additional managers.
  • Extended 24.5 in depth increases usable cable space compared to standard-depth vertical managers, supporting larger cable bundles and high-density patching.
  • Metal fingers spaced at 2U intervals with clip-on plastic finger guards (shipped loose) maintain bend radius, reducing cable strain and supporting high-density cable bundles and heavy gauge cables.
  • Finger-style duct organizes cables at each rack unit for structured, high-density routing and improved accessibility.
  • Full-height removable covers provide cable containment and a clean, professional installation.
  • Designed for use between racks to create a centralized cable management spine in multi-rack systems.
  • Plinth base option supports end-of-row installations, as managers are designed to mount to racks and not sit directly on the floor.
  • Maintains proper cable bend radius for fiber, Cat6/6A, and coax cables in high-density applications.
  • Compatible with accessory systems such as cable spools, dividers, and tie-down points for advanced cable management.
  • Scalable design supports ganging multiple racks and managers for large deployments.
  • TAA-compliant, manufactured in North America supports government procurement requirements and ensures consistent quality.
  • Black powder coat finish (GREENGUARD, TSCA, RoHS compliant) supports indoor air quality and environmental compliance.

The VFM Series double-sided vertical cable managers provide a high-capacity solution for organizing cables in open frame rack systems. Designed to manage cables on both the front and rear of the rack, they maximize cable density while maintaining structured routing and accessibility.

Unlike single-sided vertical managers, the VFM Series creates a central cable management pathway between racks, allowing cables to be routed efficiently across the entire system. This makes it ideal for high-density data center and telecom environments where scalability, organization, and airflow are critical.
