Which rail kit fits my server?

Rails are specific to the server model and often the generation. The Dell R640 kit fits the R640; the HPE DL380 kit fits the DL380 Gen9 and Gen10. Send the model, or the Dell service tag or HPE serial number, and the team will name the kit. For a server not listed, the team can usually source the OEM kit.

What is the difference between sliding and static rails?

Sliding rails let the server pull forward out of the rack like a drawer, so the lid can be opened for service with the server still mounted. Static rails fix the server in place; it must be lifted out for any internal work. Both kits in stock are sliding rails.

Will the rails fit my rack?

They are for standard 19-inch four-post racks. The outer rails adjust to the distance between the front and rear posts, within a range given in the kit's documentation. Very shallow or very deep cabinets, two-post racks and wall-mount cabinets may not suit; tell the team the cabinet model or the post-to-post depth and they will check.

Do the rail kits come with screws and cage nuts?

Tool-less kits, such as the Dell R640 rails, clip straight into square-hole racks without screws. Where fixings are needed for round-hole or threaded racks, say so when ordering so they can be included.

Do I need a cable management arm?

Only if you want to pull the server out while it is running with the cables still connected. For a server that is powered down for service, it is not needed, and it takes up depth behind the chassis. Arms are sourced to order.

Can you rack the server for me?

Yes. ServerDove installs, racks and cables equipment as a service across Qatar. Send the requirement by WhatsApp on +974 5521 2108, email sales@serverdove.com or use the contact page.

About rack rails and accessories

Rail kits and rack accessories for Dell PowerEdge and HPE ProLiant servers. Rails are specific to the server model and generation, so send the model or service tag and we confirm the right kit. Held in Doha.

A rail kit is the pair of left and right rails that carries a rack server in a four-post cabinet. Inner rails bolt or clip to the server chassis, outer rails fix to the front and rear rack posts and adjust to the cabinet's depth. This range covers OEM sliding rail kits for Dell PowerEdge and HPE ProLiant servers, with shelves, cable management and other rack hardware sourced on request.

It is for anyone racking a server that arrived without rails, moving a server to a new cabinet, or replacing rails left behind in a decommissioned rack. A rack server cannot sit safely in a cabinet without the right kit.

In stock: Dell PowerEdge R640, HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen9 and Gen10 sliding rails
Rack type: Four-post, 19-inch
To order: Other models, shelves, cable arms, blanking panels

Rail kits in stock

Server	Kit	Notes
Dell PowerEdge R640 (1U)	Sliding rail kit, inner and outer rails	Tool-less fitting; outer rails adjust for rack depth
HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen9 and Gen10 (2U)	OEM sliding rail kit, left and right	Same kit covers both generations

Sliding rails let the server be drawn forward out of the rack so the top cover can be opened for drive, memory, fan and riser work without unracking it. Static rails hold the server fixed and are lighter and cheaper, but the server has to come out of the rack for any internal work.

What decides the right kit

Server model and generation. Rails are made for a specific chassis. A kit for one model or generation will usually not fit another, even from the same vendor and the same height.
Rack type. These kits are for four-post racks with square or round holes on front and rear posts. A two-post relay rack or a wall-mount cabinet needs a different mounting method.
Rack depth. Outer rails adjust across a range of depths. Check the cabinet's post-to-post distance against the kit's range, especially in shallow cabinets.
Cable management arm. An optional arm folds the cables behind a sliding server so it can be pulled out while running. It needs extra depth behind the server.
