Why Choose the Rittal DK 7159.017 Cable Management Panel?
The Rittal DK 7159.017 is a professional 1 U cable management panel with plastic cable shunting rings, designed for horizontal routing and organisation of patch cables in 482.6 mm (19-inch) network, server and IT enclosures. It provides a dedicated cable management point at the front of the rack, helping keep patch leads organised and accessible around switches, patch panels and other network equipment.
The panel is supplied with 5 cable shunting rings, allowing patch cables to be guided horizontally across the rack rather than hanging loosely around installed equipment. Each ring is manufactured from UL 94-V0 plastic, while the main panel uses robust sheet-steel construction for dependable use in professional IT infrastructure.
With a standard width of 482.6 mm (19-inch) and an installation height of 1 U, the DK 7159.017 integrates directly into compatible rack mounting systems. The cable rings measure 70 mm deep × 44 mm high, providing useful capacity for patch cable routing, while the RAL 9005 black finish complements professional network and server enclosure installations.

Organised Horizontal Patch Cable Management
Patch cables can quickly become difficult to manage when multiple switches, patch panels and other network devices are installed within the same rack. The Rittal DK 7159.017 provides a defined horizontal routing path directly within the 19-inch equipment area, helping guide patch leads between connection points and keeping them away from adjacent equipment.
The 5 open cable shunting rings allow cables to be inserted, removed and rearranged as network configurations change. With only 1 U of rack space required, the panel provides practical cable organisation without consuming excessive installation capacity, making it suitable for data centres, communications rooms and enterprise network infrastructure.
