FAQ
Which rack cable attachment should I choose for my training?
If you mainly want lat pulldowns and rows, a lat/low-row unit is the most direct fit; for broader exercise variety and unilateral work, pick a side-mount functional trainer. REP also offers rack-integrated cable modules (like REP ARES™ or Altitude™) that keep everything seamless within the rack ecosystem.
How do I confirm compatibility with my rack?
Match your rack series (1000, 4000, or 5000), upright size, and hole pattern; REP cable attachments are designed for specific ecosystems. Use the Rack Series filter on this page and verify the compatibility notes on each item.
What’s the difference between plate-loaded and selectorized systems?
Plate-loaded uses the weight plates you own and keeps cost down; selectorized uses a built-in stack for faster changes and a cleaner setup. For a quick comparison, see our guide on selectorized vs plate-loaded strength equipment.
How much space do I need around my rack for a cable attachment?
Many units extend behind or to the side of the rack, so leave rear and lateral clearance plus enough ceiling height for pulldowns and floor space for rows. Side-mount functional trainers typically need more lateral room for full cable travel.
What is a pulley ratio and why does it matter?
Pulley ratio affects how much weight you feel at the handle and the cable’s travel distance, so the same plates or stack can feel different across systems. Get the basics in our explainer on cable ratios and why they matter.
