The other thing about this type of product is the plastic divider between the power and communications sections. How does this provide any shielding? When installing Cat-5 cable in the open above ceilings, we are told that the Cat-5 must be kept at least 6" away from power conductors in metal raceways and 12" from power cables without metallic jackets and 12" from fluorescent light fixtures. We are told that this separation is to avoid interference with the data transmission. In both cases I would think that the metal conduits and metal fixture would be a much better shield then the plastic divider. Why is separation required from metallic raceways, yet this little piece of plastic is ok in the wire way?
