Description
Our metal backboards are constructed of steel and color coded using paint over
primer finish. Color-coded backboards are approximately 1/2-inch deep and available
with 89 brackets, 66 B blocks, and distribution posts in a variety of configurations.
Green represents central office, blue is for station and white is for wire distribution.
Application
Color-coded backboards are used in equipment rooms or satellite closets to crossconnect or connect wires for telephone or data equipment installation. Color-coding
makes it easy to determine wire direction.
