HPE ProLiant DL560 Gen10 Rack Options
Genuine HPE rail kits and cable management arms for the HPE ProLiant DL560 Gen10, new and refurbished. Two things decide every order here: rail kits are optional on this server and are not included with it, and neither rail kit includes a cable management arm — the arm is a separate part number matched to the rail kit you choose.
DL560 Gen10 Rack Option Specifications
- Form factor: 2U rack, 8.75cm × 44.54cm × 75.47cm (3.44in × 17.54in × 29.71in) with the bezel fitted
- Weight: HPE gives roughly 18.45kg (40.67lb) for a minimal build and 34.12kg (75.23lb) with all drives, power supplies, DIMMs and processors installed
- Rail kits: the 2U Large Form Factor Easy Install Rail Kit and the 2U Large Form Factor Ball Bearing Rail Kit, both telescoping for in-rack serviceability
- Cable management arms: one for each rail kit, ordered by part number against the rails rather than assumed — the Easy Install and Ball Bearing arms are not interchangeable
- What this listing carries: four part numbers — two rail kits and the matching arm for each
- Installation: HPE recommends a minimum of two people for any rack server installation, which is worth taking seriously on a 2U chassis that reaches 75lb loaded
Neither rail kit includes a cable management arm. The Easy Install and Ball Bearing kits each have their own matching arm part number, and the two are not interchangeable. Rail kits are optional on this model and are no longer included with the server, so a used DL560 Gen10 arriving without rails is normal.
Easy Install rails or ball bearing rails?
| Easy Install rail kit | Ball bearing rail kit | |
|---|---|---|
| Rail kit part number | 733662-B21 | 720864-B21 |
| Rails | Telescoping, in-rack serviceability | Telescoping, in-rack serviceability |
| Cable management arm | 733664-B21, sold separately | 720865-B21, sold separately |
| Factory pre-configured models | Shipped with Entry, Base and Performance models | Not the factory default |
Both kits telescope, so either lets you slide the server forward for service without unracking it. The practical difference is what the server was built with: HPE shipped its pre-configured DL560 Gen10 models on Easy Install rails with a cable management arm, so matching those is usually the path of least resistance when adding a second machine to an existing rack.
Choosing the Right DL560 Gen10 Rack Option
- Order the arm with the rails, not after. Each rail kit explicitly excludes its cable management arm, and the two arms are specific to their rail families.
- Measure the rack before ordering rails. The chassis is 75.47cm (29.71in) deep with its bezel, and a cable management arm adds behind that.
- A server bought without rails will have none. Rail kits stopped being standard on this model, so a used DL560 Gen10 arriving without them is normal rather than a missing part.

Rack depth and cable routing are decided by what is in the back of the machine — see DL560 Gen10 power supplies and networking adapters for what fills the rear. Also available: DL560 Gen10 memory, drives, storage controllers and processors, or the full DL560 Gen10 parts listing. Every model we carry is listed under HPE parts by server model.
DL560 Gen10 Rack Options FAQ
Do DL560 Gen10 rail kits include a cable management arm?
No. Both the Easy Install and the Ball Bearing rail kits exclude the cable management arm, and each has its own matching arm part number. Order the two together.
Does the DL560 Gen10 come with rails?
Not as standard. HPE made rail kits optional on this model and they are no longer included with the server, so a machine can legitimately arrive without them.
What is the difference between Easy Install and ball bearing rails?
Both are 2U large form factor kits with telescoping rails that allow in-rack serviceability. The Easy Install kit, 733662-B21, is what HPE shipped with the pre-configured Entry, Base and Performance models; the ball bearing kit is 720864-B21.
How deep is a DL560 Gen10?
75.47cm, or 29.71 inches, with the bezel fitted. The chassis is 8.75cm high and 44.54cm wide, and a cable management arm adds depth behind the server.
How heavy is a DL560 Gen10?
HPE gives about 18.45kg (40.67lb) for a minimal configuration and 34.12kg (75.23lb) with all drives, power supplies, DIMMs and processors fitted. HPE recommends two people for any rack installation.
Can I reuse rails from another 2U ProLiant?
Only if the part number matches. Rail kits are specified per chassis family, so check the kit against this server rather than assuming a 2U rail from another model will mount.
