Section 4: Cabling a PowerEdge R820 system installed on static
rails
NOTE: The CMA is compatible only with the sliding rails, not the static rails.
1. Follow the instructions contained in the Rack Installation Instructions found in the static rail kit to
install the server into a two-post or four-post rack.
2. Install the hook-and-loop straps provided in the rail kit through the slots in the rear brackets of the
rails as described in the Rack Installation Instructions. If the slots in the rails are not accessible
due to the depth of the system and/or the spacing of the rack mounting flanges, install the hook-
and-loop straps onto the rack frame as shown in Figure 11.
3. Connect all applicable cables to the rear of the system and verify that all connections are secure.
4. Using the hook-and-loop straps, bundle the cables and secure them to either the left rail or right
rail as described in the Rack Installation Instructions. See Figure 11 for an example of data cables
secured to the left rail and power cables secured to the right rail (as viewed from the rear of the
system).
