If installing to 2-Post (Telco) racks, the ReadyRails Static rails (B4) must be used. Both sliding rails support mounting in 4-post racks
only.

Installation in the Dell EMC Titan or Titan-D racks
If installing to Titan or Titan-D racks, the Stab-in/Drop-in Sliding rails (B13) must be used. This rail collapses down sufficiently to fit in
racks with mounting flanges spaced about 24 inches apart from front to back. The Stab-in/Drop-in Sliding rail allows bezels of the
servers and storage systems to be in alignment when installed in these racks.
System-to-Rail Installation Method
If the customer prefers to use the stab-in installation method for installing their systems to the rails, the Stab-in/Drop-in Sliding
rails(B13) or the ReadyRails Static rail (B4) must be selected.
NOTE: ReadyRails Sliding rails (B6) are drop-in only.

NOTE: No screws are required for the Stab-in/Drop-in Sliding (B13) rails when mounting the rails to the racks
NOTE: Screws are not included in either kit as threaded racks are offered with various thread designations. Users must
therefore provide their own screws when mounting the rails in threaded racks.
NOTE: Screw head diameter for the sliding rails must be 10 mm or less.
Other key factors governing proper rail selection include the following:
•
Spacing between the front and rear mounting flanges of the rack
44
