Proliant DL120 Gen9 Dimensions and Rack Compatibility

The Proliant DL120 Gen9 chassis is 1.69 inches in height, has a depth of 27.55 inches and will fit in standard EIA 19 inch racks. 

Rails allow for the most efficient use of space when mounting servers. RackSolutions specifically designed a slide rail kit to fit the shoulder screws of the Proliant DL120 Gen9.

Universal rails that have a height of 1U and support up to 27.55 inches of depth will be compatible with the Proliant DL120 Gen9. A benefit of these is the ability to re-use them for different servers or future upgrades. Plus, it’s easy to slide your server in and out of them for maintenance.
