Hammond VFMAP12BK 12 in Spool/Divider Inner Panel, Black Steel

The VFMAP12BK is a spool/divider inner panel accessory for 12 in wide VFM Series double-sided vertical cable managers. It is intended for data center, network and telecom technicians who need to subdivide the manager's internal channel and add mounting points for cable management spools and channel dividers, keeping fiber and copper patch cords separated within a high-density vertical pathway.

The panel is formed from mild steel with a painted black textured finish, matching the black VFM manager bodies. It measures 20.63 in x 11.82 in x 0.3 in (524 mm x 300 mm x 8 mm), and the 11.82 in (300 mm) width corresponds to the 12 in width column of the VFM accessory range. Each VFMAP12BK ships as a VFM manager accessory cover (1) with four fastener clips (4) for attachment.

Within the VFM Series, the inner panel works with the accessory system of cable spools, dividers and tie-down points that the managers are designed to accept. Note that the VFM cable fill data for the rear pass-through opening is published without accessory inner panels installed, so plan channel capacity accordingly when adding inner panels.

VFMAP12BK is manufactured in Canada and is listed as TAA-compliant, USMCA compliant, RoHS compliant and REACH compliant, with ECCN EAR99 and tariff code 8538.10.0000. Multiple panels can be used along the height of a manager to build structured, repeatable routing in cross-connect and high-density patching environments. A white version of the same 12 in panel is offered as VFMAP12WH for installations using white VFM managers.
