Hammond VFMMD6BK 6 in Wide 44U Double-Sided Vertical Cable Manager

VFMMD6BK is a double-sided vertical cable manager from the VFM Series, built for IT, data center and telecom teams that need high-capacity cable routing on both the front and rear of open frame racks. Its finger-duct design organizes patch cords at each rack unit, creating a centralized cable management spine when installed between racks in a multi-rack row.

The manager uses a 16-gauge mild steel frame with a black powder coat finish that is GREENGUARD, TSCA and RoHS compliant. Metal fingers spaced at 2U intervals carry clip-on plastic finger guards (shipped loose) to maintain bend radius for fiber, Cat6/6A and coax cables and reduce strain on heavy gauge bundles. Full-height removable covers — this version ships with dual hinged doors, two VFM 1-piece 6 in wide doors — provide containment and a clean finished appearance.

Overall dimensions are 81 in x 6 in x 24.5 in (2,057 mm x 152 mm x 622 mm), with 77.00 in (1956 mm) of mounting height equal to 44 rack units. The extended 24.5 in depth increases usable cable space compared with standard-depth vertical managers. Estimated fill for VFMMD6BK is 430 Cat 6 or 298 Cat 6a cables at a 50% fill ratio in the combined front and rear channel opening, rising to 860 and 598 at 100% fill, with 28 Cat 6 cables per finger opening at 50% fill.

Mounting hardware is included, and the manager is designed to mount to racks rather than sit on the floor; a plinth base option in the series supports end-of-row installations. Cable spool mounting slots accept accessory spools, dividers and inner panels such as VFMAP6BK and VFMFP6BK. Made in Canada, the manager is TAA compliant, USMCA compliant, REACH compliant and classified EAR99. Shipping weight is 82 lbs (37.19 kg).
