Installing overhead cable tray kits

Cable trays (also called ladder racks) can hang from a ceiling, or they can be mounted across the tops of the columns. If ceiling-hung racks are used, the rear top cap grill on each column must be replaced with a Top Cap Cable Egress Panel (P0699851). The optional Top Cap Egress Panel has cutouts for cable routing. The cable trays and the equipment required to hang them must be provided by the customer and installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Nortel offers an NT8D63 Overhead Cable Tray Kit, which provides equipment for mounting cable trays on four-tier columns. The kit includes two support brackets, and front and rear exhaust grills with cutouts for cable routing. The cable tray itself must be provided by the customer; it is not included in the kit. Use Procedure 6 on page 90 to install the NT8D63 kit.
