Cable entry panel 19" IT-BUDGET with 5 plastic cable brackets HxT 44x70 mm 1U black

The IT-BUDGET 19" cable entry panel is a 1U rack accessory designed to provide neat cable routing and strain relief inside standard 19" server racks and enclosures. It includes five robust plastic cable brackets, each with internal dimensions of approximately 44 x 70 mm (height x depth), that hold and guide network, power and patch cables while keeping the front and rear of the rack more accessible for maintenance.

Advantages

This cable entry panel offers a compact 1U footprint while adding five dedicated cable brackets made from sturdy plastic profile for durable cable support. The brackets help reduce cable strain, minimise tangling and improve airflow by keeping cable runs organised. The black finish integrates with common rack colour schemes and the panel is compatible with standard 19" mounting distances.

Suitable for

• Organising network patch cables and power leads in 19" server racks and network cabinets
• Providing strain relief for grouped cable runs behind patch panels and switches
• Racks where a low-height (1U) cable management solution is preferred
• Cabinets requiring quick access to cable entries while maintaining tidy routing

When it may not be suitable

This panel is intended for standard 19" racks and offers five plastic brackets sized 44x70 mm; it may not be suitable when very large cable bundles or non-standard connector clusters require larger or custom cable management solutions. It is not a sealed or weatherproof entry and therefore is not suitable for outdoor enclosures exposed to moisture or dust without additional protection.

Key specifications

• Form factor: 1U height, fits 19" rack mount
• Number of cable brackets: 5
• Bracket internal dimensions: 44 mm (height) x 70 mm (depth)
• Material: sturdy plastic profile for the cable brackets; metal panel body
• Colour: black

How to use

Install the panel into an available 1U position of a standard 19" rack using compatible rack screws. Route individual network, power or patch cables through the plastic brackets so each bracket holds a group of cables, providing strain relief and organised separation. Adjust cable grouping to avoid excessive bundling and ensure connectors and airflow are not obstructed. Regularly inspect the brackets and cable arrangement to maintain tidy routing and to address any wear on cable jackets at entry points.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify available 1U space in your 19" rack or cabinet
• Confirm bracket dimensions (44x70 mm) match your cable bundle sizes and connector clearances
• Check that a plastic-bracket solution meets your durability and environmental requirements
• Ensure compatibility with adjacent rack equipment and airflow needs

Usage recommendations

Group related cables by function (e.g., network, power, console) and avoid overfilling each bracket to preserve strain relief and airflow. Use velcro straps or cable ties outside the bracket area for additional routing support if needed, and perform periodic checks to ensure connectors remain secure and cables are not pinched at bracket edges.
