Third-Party Rack Cabinet Solution
Recognizing that not all customers use Compaq racks, the ProLiant DL320 design supports
deployment in third-party rack cabinets. Compaq offers a Third-Party Rack Cabinet kit designed
to install ProLiant DL320 servers in third-party racks. This kit includes variable length rack rails
that are compatible with a variety of third-party racks. The Third-Party Rack Cabinet kit can be
installed in racks that are 21 inches (610 mm) to 29.13 inches (740 mm) deep. The rack rails
included in this kit operate smoothly with the standard fixed server rails that are pre-installed on
the ProLiant DL320 server. The fixed cable tray included with the ProLiant DL320 server is also
compatible with most third-party racks.
IMPORTANT: Always install the Compaq Third Party Rack Cabinet kit when deploying a
ProLiant DL320 server in a third-party rack. The kit supports the same cable management tray
that the standard fixed rail rack solution uses.
Telco (Telecommunications) Rack Solution

deployment in Telco racks. Compaq offers a Telco Rack kit designed to install ProLiant DL320
servers in Telco racks. This kit includes rack rails and screws that are compatible with a variety of
Telco racks. The Telco rack kit includes replacement server rails designed to fit on the ProLiant
DL320 server. Before deploying ProLiant DL320 servers into a Telco rack, remove the standard
server rails and replace them with the Telco server rails included in the Telco Rack kit.

DL320 server in a Telco rack.
