Dell Poweredge Server Cabling

Hi

We are considering buying 20 or so Dell Poweredge 2650 2U Servers and
rackmounting them in a Dell 42U rack.

The Instruction supplied with the 2650 suggest you can run the cable
management system either to the left or to the right.....but we cannot see
how todo this.

Dell are being not very forthcoming with information or example photos.

Obviously with a fully populated rack this is going to be an issue if all
the cables are on one side of the cabinet.

Does anyone else out there have a number of 2650s in a rack they could maybe
send us a few photos of the cabling arrangements they have come up with ?

Thanks

some photos can be found near the end of this document about the poweredge
4210 rack...

The cable arm can only be attached on the right hand side.
