Rack Airflow	Rack 10000 G2 series Cabinets
Requirements	The increasing power of new high-performance processor technology requires increased cooling
	efficiency for rack-mounted servers. The 10000 G2 Series Racks provide enhanced airflow for
	maximum cooling, allowing these racks to be fully loaded with servers using the latest processors.
	CAUTION: If a third-party rack is used, observe the following additional requirements to ensure
	adequate airflow and to prevent damage to the equipment:
	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 holes evenly distributed from top to bottom
	to permit adequate airflow (equivalent to the required 64 percent open area for ventilation).
	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: www.hp.com/servers/proliantdl385G6.
Rack Kit	Quick deploy rail system provides tool-free support for racks with square or round mounting holes
	(including Compaq/HP 7000, 9000, 10000 G2 and HP series), with an adjustment range of 24" -
	36". The ambidextrous cable management arm can be mounted on either the left or right side for
	improved cable management.
	NOTE: Cable management arm must be removed to access hot-plug power supplies when the
	cable management arm is mounted on the right.
	NOTE: High Airflow Inserts (High Air Flow Rack Door Insert for the 7142 Rack (single) - PN:
	327281-B21; or High Air Flow Rack Door Insert for the 7142 Rack (6-pack) - PN: 327281-B22) are
	required to support the HP ProLiant DL385 in 7000 series racks. The DL385 Cable Management
	Arm is not supported on 7000 series racks.
