Minimum Rack Requirements
Mounts in Compaq, and Telco racks and Third Party racks that meet the following criteria:
• Compatible with 19-inch Standard EIA rail sets
• EIA rail-to-rail depth is 29 − 30″
• Cabinet depth must be at least 36-inch deep overall (Additional min. 3.5-inch clearance from rear
RETMA rail to rear door, inclusive in the 36-inch overall depth)
• Ample room for top and bottom cable egress (approximately 8 square inches for full rack configuration
with patch panel)
• Must be capable of supporting 1600 lb (for full rack configuration)
• Perforated front and rear doors to accommodate front-to-back cooling
• Must have 65% open perforation on server blade enclosure doors to support airflow requirements
• Optimized for use with the Compaq 10000 Series racks
Note: If using Compaq 7000 Series rack, Compaq Rack Extension Kit and High Air Flow Rack Door options are
required.
Rack Airflow Requirements
• Rack 9000 and 10000 series Cabinets
The increasing power of new high-performance processor technology requires increased cooling
efficiency for rack-mounted servers. The Compaq 9000 Series Rack and the new 10000 Series Racks
provides enhanced airflow for maximum cooling, allowing these racks to be fully loaded with servers
using the latest processors.
• Rack 7000 series Cabinets
When installing a server with processors running at speeds of 550 MHz or greater in Compaq Rack
7000 series racks with glass doors (165753-001 (42U), and 163747-001 (22U)), the new processor
technology requires the installation of Compaq’s new High Airflow Rack Door Inserts (327281-B21
(42U), 327281-B22 (42U 6 pack), or 157847-B21 (22U)) to promote enhanced airflow for maximum
cooling.
CAUTION: If a third-party rack is used, observe the following additional requirements to ensure adequate airflow
and to prevent damage to the equipment:
o Front and rear doors:
If your 42U server rack includes closing front and rear doors, you must
allow 830 square inches (5,350 sq cm) of hole evenly distributed from top to bottom to permit
adequate airflow (equivalent to the required 64 percent open area for ventilation).
o Side:
The clearance between the installed rack component and the side panels of the rack must
be a minimum of 2.75 inches (7 cm)
CAUTION: Always use blanking panels to fill all remaining empty front panel U-spaces in the rack. This
arrangement ensures proper airflow. Using a rack without blanking panels results in improper cooling
that can lead to thermal damage.
Note: For additional information, refer to the Setup and Installation Guide or the Documentation CD provided with
the server, or to the server documentation located in the Support section at the following URL:
