Rack rails
The DM5500 supports only static rails. There is no sliding rail option and there are no external cable management options such
as a cable management arm (CMA) or strain relief bar (SRB).

The static rails support tool-less mounting in EIA/ECA-310-E compliant square hole and unthreaded round hole 4-post racks.

The static rails offer a greater adjustability range and a smaller overall mounting footprint than the sliding rails. This feature is
due to their reduced complexity and lack of need for external cable management (CMA, SRB) support.
