Refer to the Compaq ProLiant DL360 G2 Setup and Installation Guide for complete installation
instructions.
Telco Rack Solution
Many data centers use two post telecommunication (telco) racks. The ProLiant DL360 G2 server
design supports deployment in telco racks. Compaq offers a telco rack kit designed to install
ProLiant DL360 G2 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 DL360 G2 server. Before deploying ProLiant DL360 G2 servers
into a telco rack, remove the standard server rails and replace them with the telco server rails
included in the telco rack kit.
IMPORTANT: Always install the Compaq telco rack kit when deploying a ProLiant DL360 G2
server in a telco rack.
