Connecting the System to the Mains
There are slots for four hot-swappable 2100 W power supply units on the rear
of the basic unit. The base system is equipped with two power supply units.
V
CAUTION!
●
Make sure you observe the information on determining how many
power supply units are required (see
chapter “Power Supply
Concept” on page 125
).
●
Due to the high power requirements of the BX600 S3 blade server,
you must be careful when arranging the power cabling. Please notice
the information that purpose in
section “Notes on power cabling” on
page 126
).
●
The power supply units switch on automatically at a mains voltage
between 200 - 240 V. The basic unit may only be commissioned if the
local mains voltage is within the voltage range of the system.
●
The 2100 W power supply units may only be connected to 16 Amp
grounding outlets, a power distribution unit (PDU) or CEE outlets.
When ordering the basic unit, indicate the type of outlet available at
the installation site. This will allow us to supply a cable with suitable
C19 connectors with the order.
