SYSTEM
n Innovative profile. Accommodates greater wiring capacity
and has a more aesthetic appearance than conventional
b
ox-shaped profiles. Design allows for more efficient use of
raceway capacity and provides 1/3 more wiring capacity
than conventional raceways including Wiremold 4000
Series
™
Raceway.
n Adaptable fittings. Reduces the number of SKUs required
for inventory making DS4000
™
Series Raceway easier to
specify, order, and inventory.
n Ease of installation. DS4000
™
Raceway systems can be
installed by a single installer, reducing installation costs
and maximizing installer resources. Innovative fittings
and features also save time and money on future adds
and changes.
n No-saw cut base design. Raceway base and Adjust-to-Fit
™
couplings eliminate precise cuts required during installation,
saving installation time. Raceway base is scored so that it
can be easily cut with tin snips when required.
n Overlapping fittings and faceplates. Simpler, cleaner, and
more attractive installation. No visible screws. Also allows
raceway covers to be cut to larger tolerances.
n Field-configurable. Installers can easily adapt and modify
installations to accommodate unforeseen obstacles. Saves
installation time and reduces cost overruns from ordering
additional parts not originally specified.
n Dual cover raceway. True separation of services allows
data and power installers to access their respective
channels individually.
n Full capacity channels. Power and data can be fed
through either raceway channel, with special cross-over
fittings available to maximize raceway capacity and
maintain separation of services.
n Room to grow. Generous bend radius and increased
raceway capacity support newer and larger capacity
Cat 6a cables. Raceway accommodates increased power
and data requirements in installations.
n Meets or exceeds industry standards. Conforms to UL,
NEC, and NEMA standards and EIA/TIA recommendations.
n Greater range of standard colors. DS4000
™
Steel
Raceway is available in an updated palette of colors
including Designer Ivory, Designer Gray, and Matte Black.
Custom colors are also available.
BASE
n Easy to cut. Base sections are scored at four-inch [102mm]
intervals and can be easily cut with tin snips (when
required). Specialized cutting tools or saws are not needed.
n Easy to mount. Base sections have mounting holes at four
inches [102mm] intervals. Installer can utilize them with both
16" or 24" [406mm or 610mm] framing. Combined with
included Adjust-to-Fit
™
couplings, this ensures that mounting
holes line up with wall studs.
n One-piece base and divider. Divider has pre-scored
knockouts for cabling crossovers. One-piece design
reduces installation time.
n Hardware included. Each ten-foot [3.04m] section of base
includes wire clips (8 clips, 4 pre-installed) and a pair of
Adjust-to-Fit
™
couplings. Adjust-to-Fit
™
couplings are also
included with all raceway fittings.
FITTINGS
n Streamlined fittings. Innovative design eliminates large,
b
ulky fittings that detract from raceway appearance.
n Easy to install. Adjust-to-Fit
™
couplings (included) provide
up to four inches [102mm] of lateral adjustment, eliminating
the need for precision cuts and reducing waste caused by
measuring errors.
n Full-range of obstacle avoidance fittings. Bypass large
and small obstacles, as well as small offsets in supporting
walls. Small obstacle avoidance fitting also can be used
as a transition fitting to other Wiremold
®
metal raceway
systems. Eliminates all barriers to installation.
n Transition fittings. Transition fittings connect DS4000
™
Series Raceway to existing Wiremold 4000 Series Raceway
installations or make transition to other Wiremold raceway
systems (500 Series
™
, 700 Series
™
, 2400 Series
™
).
n Cable bend radius control. No need to order special
fittings to meet bend radius compliance standards. All
fittings include cable bend radius control and meet
the specifications for Fiber Optic and UTP/STP cabling
and exceed the TIA 569 requirements for
communications pathways.
n Tamper-proof. Tamper-resistant fasteners are available to
fully secure the raceway installation. Ideal for security
systems, alarms or other security-sensitive installations.
ACTIVATIONS
n Unique downward-facing activations. Large bend radius
for data cables and activations, streamlines the raceway
appearance, and provides increased protection for both
activations and cabling. Only raceway system that offers
this feature.
n Innovative downward-facing and/or side-channel
activation features. Raceway can be loaded with either
downward-facing or conventional activations, or a
combination of both as needed.
n Cross-over feature. Allows better utilization of raceway
wiring capacity while maintaining separation of services.
n Activations accept industry-standard devices and
device plates. Compatible with a full-range of wiring, data,
and communication products.
PREWIRED
n Available prewired. DS4000
™
Series Raceway can be
ordered factory prewired saving installation time and
money. Jobs are packed to individual job requirements
and delivered on schedule to the job site.
n Streamlined design. Downward-facing activations provide
a clean, streamlined appearance.
n Visual circuit identification system included. No need to
order additional labels or marking systems.

4000 Designer Series
™
Raceway represents a significant advancement in both the design and functionality of surface-mounted
raceway systems. Design improvements not only make the raceway easier to install and wire, they result in a more functional,
higher capacity system with a more appealing streamlined appearance. Unique adaptable fittings, multiple activation options,
upgraded color options and a host of design improvements all contribute to the overall benefits and advantages of this innovative
p
roduct. Listed below are the full range of improvements that have been incorporated into this industry-leading raceway system.
