Please log in for more thread options message was flagged wiht X-No-Archive, its not possible to locate it with Google Groups and give a proper response] My gut feeling would be to use 2-unit cable management stuff for the majority of the needs. It is far better to have excess capacity than not enough capacity, IMHO, and it's nice to get the space now, because if you decid you need it in the future after everything is wired... Also, I'm not sure that I'd say that flat satin voice cable -- especially in bundles of 48 is 'much' smaller than UTP. It depends on what flat satin and what UTP your using, but maybe a little over 1/2 the space requirement. My $.02: If you have the rackspace to spare, use the 2U cable management panels; if you don't have the rackspace to use the 2U cable menagement panels, add another rack and use the 2U panels; if you don't have the room for another rack, use the 1U panels Lincoln Chris Keath wrote: | ||||||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options much as possible. At worst, I'll put a 1U at the top and bottom of a stack of a 2U-48 port panels, with 2U inbetween each panel. > My gut feeling would be to use 2-unit cable management stuff for the
