The adjustment range of the rails is a function of the type of rack in which they are being mounted. 
The min-max values listed above represent the allowable distance between the front and rear 
mounting flanges in the rack. Rail depth represents the minimum depth of the rail as measured from 
the rack front mounting flanges when the rail rear bracket is positioned all the way forward. 
14.3 Cable Management Arm (CMA) 
The optional cable management arm (CMA) for the R610 organizes and secures the cords and cables 
exiting the back of the server and unfolds to allow the server to extend out of the rack without 
having to detach the cables. Some key features of the R610 CMA include: 
•  Large U-shaped baskets support dense cable loads. 
•  An open vent pattern allows for optimal airflow. 
•  The CMA mounting is fully-reversible (can be mounted on either side) with no conversion 
required. 
•  Hook-and-loop straps are used rather than plastic tie wraps to eliminate the risk of cable 
damage during cycling. 
•  A low-profile fixed tray is provided to both support and retain the CMA in its fully closed 
position. 
•  The CMA and the tray mount without the use of tools using simple and intuitive snap-in 
designs. 
14.4 Rack View 
The R610 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 11.
