Deploying ProLiant DL320 and DL360 Servers into Telecommunication (Telco) Racks
Table 2 lists the weights of individual components used in deployments of Compaq ProLiant
DL320 and ProLiant DL360 servers in telco racks.
Table 2. Component Weights for Calculation
Item
Configured (1 server)
Fully configured (42 servers)
Wide Ultra3 hard disk drive
Remote Insight Lights-Out Edition option
Telco Rack Option Kit rack rails (set)
KVM cable bundle
High voltage Y power cable
Server console switch
WARNING: External cable weight contributes to the overall weight of the rack installation.
Because cable installation and load-bearing designs vary greatly, carefully consider cable weight
in all designs.
WARNING: Do not exceed the specified weight limit for the telco rack or the floor. When
creating deployments of Compaq ProLiant DL320 or ProLiant DL360 ultra-dense servers in a
telco rack, include in the weight calculations the weight of the rack rails, cable management trays,
and cables whose load is bearing on the rack.
CAUTION: Ensure that the cabling design provides both adequate airspace for thermal
dissipation and strain relief for the cable connections on the Compaq ProLiant DL360 or ProLiant
DL320 server if the cable management tray is not used. The cable management tray design
reduces cable congestion and relieves strain on connectors.
