Panduit CWMPV3340 40 RU Vertical Cable Manager
The Panduit CWMPV3340 delivers single-sided vertical cable management for equipment racks where front-access routing and high-density organization are critical. This 40-rack-unit manager spans the full height of standard 42U cabinets (70 inches / 1778 mm), providing continuous routing capacity for copper and fiber runs without forcing technicians to over-bend cables at mid-cabinet transitions. Its 3.25-inch-wide (83 mm) channel accommodates bundled Cat6A, fiber trunk assemblies, and power cords in parallel, while the front-mounting bracket design preserves rear clearance for equipment depth and airflow. Built from durable PVC and finished in black to match most cabinet interiors, the CWMPV3340 integrates into existing Panduit or third-party rack systems without modification.
Key Features
- 40 RU / 70-inch vertical span matches standard cabinet heights for uninterrupted cable routing
- 3.25-inch-wide single-sided channel handles high-density copper and fiber bundles
- Front-mounting bracket preserves rear equipment clearance and maintains hot/cold aisle airflow separation
- PVC construction with black finish for durability and cabinet interior aesthetics
- RoHS-compliant materials meet datacenter and enterprise procurement requirements
Datacenter and network equipment installations demand cable managers that prevent service loops from obstructing airflow, blocking equipment removal, or creating tension points that degrade signal integrity. The CWMPV3340's 40 RU height eliminates the need for stacked shorter managers and the mid-cabinet splice points that introduce bend-radius violations. The 3.25-inch channel width accepts bundles of up to 24-48 Cat6A cables or multiple 12-fiber MPO trunks routed side-by-side, providing the capacity required for high-port-density switches and blade server environments. The single-sided design routes all cables along one vertical plane, leaving the opposite cabinet side clear for power distribution units or additional equipment rails.
Front mounting positions the manager directly behind the equipment mount plane, so cables exit switch or server RJ45/SFP ports and immediately enter the manager's channel without forming visible service loops in the cabinet interior. This placement keeps cables clear of equipment that slides on rails for maintenance, reducing the risk of accidental disconnection during server or switch removal. The manager's PVC body resists deformation under bundled cable weight and maintains its shape across temperature swings typical of raised-floor datacenters (50-90°F / 10-32°C). Installation requires standard cage nuts or threaded mounting holes on cabinet verticals; no proprietary brackets or cabinet modifications are necessary.
The CWMPV3340 ships as a single 70-inch assembly (no field splicing required) and includes the front-mounting bracket hardware. RoHS compliance ensures compatibility with procurement policies in regulated industries and government facilities. For installations requiring bilateral cable routing, pair two CWMPV3340 units on opposite cabinet verticals; for narrower cabinets or lower port densities, Panduit's smaller-width or shorter-RU managers in the same product family provide consistent mounting and finish aesthetics.
