Overview

The Panduit T-45 raceway base (SKU: T45BEI8) is a tamper-resistant, 8-foot surface raceway system designed for routing low-voltage, fiber optic, and power cabling along perimeter walls in commercial, industrial, and data center environments. This two-piece hinged design features a 2.12 sq. in. internal area and pre-punched mounting holes for quick installation. The Electric Ivory finish provides a clean, professional appearance while maintaining compliance with UL 5A and CSA C22.2 No. 62.1-03 standards, with a 600V rating and FT4 flame rating for safety. The tamper-resistant design prevents unauthorized access to cables, making it ideal for secure installations. Compatible with T-45 hinged data/power brackets, offset boxes, and surface mount outlet boxes, this raceway supports both single-channel and multi-channel configurations when paired with divider walls (T45DW**). The system integrates seamlessly with T-45 fittings (corners, tees, couplers) and accessories like the T45HDB hinged data bracket for organized cable management. With a 2.44m (8 ft) length and Electric Ivory color, it’s optimized for perimeter wall applications where space efficiency and accessibility are critical. Manufactured in the US by Panduit, a leader in electrical infrastructure solutions.
