Rack View
The R710 ReadyRails sliding rails are a drop-in design, meaning that the system is installed vertically into the
rails by inserting the shoulder nuts on the sides of the system into the J-slots in the inner rail members with
the rails in the fully extended position. See Figure 14.

The CMA can be mounted to either side of the rails without the use of tools or the need for conversion, but it is
recommended that it be mounted on the side opposite the power supplies to allow easier access to the power
supplies for service or replacement. See Figure 15.
