Description
1U Rack Blank for 10" Network Enclosures for Clean and Easy Cable Management
Cables in, clutter out: 10" 1U cable management blank with snap-in slots for patch cables (RJ45 connectors can be passed through from both sides).
Perfect for: 10" homelab racks, switch stacks, Raspberry Pi / mini-PC levels, separated LAN segments.
When setting up my second 10" LabRax Racks 10U from mklements with multiple switches, Raspberry Pis, and mini-PCs, I needed clean cable routing between the levels – without the patch cables running across the front.
After a few prototypes, this solution was created:
What does the blank do
- RJ45 connectors can be passed through from both sides (pull patch cables directly through)
- Cables can be moved in the horizontal slot (routing remains flexible)
- Snap-in / locking tabs for a secure fit (up to 2 cables per slot)
- For standard patch cables: ~5 mm ideal, 6 mm also works
- 32 cables per side possible (theoretically 64 per blank… who has that much LAN 😂)
- Reinforcements on the back for more stability
- No additional accessories needed (no clips, no cable tie frenzy)
Note
Please observe the bending radius of the LAN cables before snapping them in – patch cables do not like aggressive handling 😁
Have fun printing & wiring!
