Middle Atlantic VCD-10-51-SC – 51SP 10" Single Cable Duct with Door

Product Overview

The Middle Atlantic VCD-10-51-SC is a vertical cable management panel spanning 51 rack spaces, with a 10-inch channel width and single-sided access with a hinged door. It mounts in standard 19-inch rack rails and provides a high-capacity vertical cable pathway for installations requiring a wide channel with access from one side. The 51-space height accommodates the tallest standard equipment racks.

Product Description

The VCD-10-51-SC is designed for rack installations with high cable density requirements, where a 10-inch-wide vertical channel is needed to manage large cable bundles without forcing tight bends. Spanning 51 rack spaces, it covers the full height of a 51U rack, making it appropriate for tall rack enclosures found in data centers, broadcast facilities, and high-density AV equipment rooms. Single-sided access with a hinged door provides cable entry from one side while keeping cables contained and protected from the opposite side. The wide 10-inch channel is particularly useful when routing large-diameter cables such as multicore audio snakes, large-gauge power cables, or high-density fiber bundles. The hinged door allows maintenance and adds without removing the panel or disrupting adjacent rack equipment. Standard 19-inch rack rail mounting makes this panel compatible with any EIA-310 compliant rack regardless of manufacturer. Available through Creation Networks.
