    Acoustical design Dell EMC focuses on sound quality in addition to sound power level and sound pressure level. Sound quality describes how disturbing or pleasing a sound is interpreted, and Dell EMC references a number of psychacoustical metrics and thresholds in delivering to it. Tone prominence is one such metric.

  • Page 50: Rack Rails

    Rack rails The rail offerings for the R740 and R740xd consist of two general types: sliding and static Sliding rails features summary The sliding rails (two varieties are offered) allow the system to be fully extended out of the rack for service. They are available with or without the optional cable management arm (CMA).

  • Page 51: Static Rails

    Also supports tool-less installation in threaded round hole 4-post racks. • Required for installing R740 in a Dell EMC Titan or Titan-D rack. • Support full extension of the system out of the rack to allow serviceability of key internal components.

  • Page 52: System-To-Rail Installation Method

    Figure 16. Static rails in 2-post center mount configuration 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.

  • Page 53: Cable Management Arm (Cma)

    • Spacing between the front and rear mounting flanges of the rack • Type and location of any equipment mounted in the back of the rack such as power distribution units (PDUs) • Overall depth of the rack The static rails offer a greater adjustability range and a smaller overall mounting footprint than the sliding rails. This is because of their reduced complexity and lack of need for CMA support.
