Middle Atlantic FWD-LACE-UMV-44-45 – Forward Vertical Lace Bar, 44-45 RU

Product Overview

The Middle Atlantic FWD-LACE-UMV-44-45 is a Forward Series vertical mounting lace that drops into Lever Lock compatible rackrail brackets on 44 RU and 45 RU racks. The flanged steel lace is punched with Middle Atlantic's patented Universal Hole Pattern, providing ready-made anchor points for vertical cable lacing. Installation takes seconds: the lace drops into slots located front to back on the rackrail brackets, with no tools required for positioning. One piece is included, along with all hardware needed for any Middle Atlantic rackrail bracket style.

Product Description

Clean vertical cable management starts with a solid lacing surface, and the FWD-LACE-UMV-44-45 puts one exactly where integrators need it inside full-height 44–45 RU enclosures. As part of the Forward cable management family, the lace installs by dropping into the slots on Lever Lock compatible rackrail brackets, so it can be added or repositioned even after equipment is racked. The patented Universal Hole Pattern punched along the full length accepts Forward C-Rings (FWD-C-RING) for vertical cabling runs and Forward D-Rings (FWD-D-RING) for horizontal transitions. Forward Tie Saddles (FWD-TSW-15) also snap into the pattern for securing bundles with hook-and-loop wraps or cable ties, giving technicians a choice of lacing methods on a single bar. Because the mounting slots run front to back along multiple rackrail bracket styles, the lace can sit at the cable depth that suits each project, whether dressing power on one side and signal on the other or splitting bundles by subsystem. Durable flanged steel construction keeps the bar rigid under fully loaded cable bundles. All mounting hardware for any Middle Atlantic Products rackrail bracket style ships in the box, which keeps service calls and rack builds moving without extra parts orders.
