Overview

The nVent MaxRack Air Baffle and Cable Manager Kit (SKU: M96D12) is a Cisco developer-registered accessory designed for Cisco Catalyst 6509/6513 switches in 96.13 x 12.00 x 23.68 inch (2442 x 305 x 601 mm) deployments. This kit combines an aluminum air baffle with vertical cable manager uprights to optimize thermal management and structured cabling in high-density rack environments. The baffle ensures proper cold air distribution to prevent thermal throttling and extend switch lifespan, while the cable manager provides pre-drilled holes for D-Rings and spools to organize high-density cabling. Constructed from durable aluminum with RAL 9005 black light-textured, low-gloss polyester powder paint, the M96D12 delivers corrosion resistance and professional aesthetics. Composite supporting fingers reduce weight without compromising structural integrity. Compatible with MaxRack open-frame systems, this kit supports EIA 310-D standards and Cisco thermal requirements for mission-critical network deployments in data centers, enterprise networks, and industrial environments.
