Middle Atlantic 70in. Height 3 1/4in. Width Cable Lace Strip with Cable Tie Posts 6 - LACE-40-OP

Middle Atlantic LACE-40-OP Vertical Cable Lace Strips with Tie Posts — 40U, 6-Piece Pack

Overview

The Middle Atlantic LACE-40-OP is a set of six vertical cable management lace strips designed for 40U open-frame and enclosed racks. Each strip measures 70 inches tall by 3.25 inches wide — sized to run the full height of a 40U rack column — with integrated cable tie posts that keep bundles captured and accessible without adhesives or additional hardware. At 0.13 inches deep, the strips sit nearly flush against the rack channel, preserving airflow paths while keeping cable runs organized along vertical uprights. This is the right part for installations where conductors need to be dressed vertically alongside the rack structure rather than bundled horizontally across shelves — common in AV distribution racks, security head-end enclosures, and structured cabling builds where long cable runs must be managed from top to bottom of the rack. The LACE-40-OP ships as a pack of six strips, which typically covers both left and right lacing channels on two adjacent rack bays in a standard installation.

Compatibility

Designed for use with Middle Atlantic 40U rack systems, including the Middle Atlantic ERK, BGR, and WRK series open-frame and enclosed rack families that use standard 40U vertical channels. The 70-inch strip height corresponds to the usable vertical lacing height on a 40U rack cabinet. Verify your rack's vertical channel depth before ordering — the LACE-40-OP's near-zero 0.13-inch profile is suited for rack accessory channels with minimal clearance. These strips are not appropriate for racks shorter than 40U, where a trimmed or shorter lace strip model should be selected from the same family.

Installation Notes

No tools are required to attach cable bundles once the strips are mounted — cable ties thread through the integrated posts. The 24.8 lb shipping weight reflects the six-piece pack; individual strip weight is considerably lighter, making single-installer handling straightforward. Mount strips to the rack's vertical upright channel using the manufacturer's specified fasteners for that rack series before dressing cables.
