Common Slot Power
Supply
HP has a new design for ProLiant power. The new Common Slot Power Supply bay. This design provides
the customer with commonality in power supplies across multiple platforms to save on the cost of spares
and allows HP to offer multiple power solutions to fit the customers' needs. Many HP ProLiant Servers
come with Common Slot, High Efficiency and Right-Size Power Supplies. Common Slot (CS) designates
commonality of the power supply across multiple ProLiant servers. HP's new Common Slot power supplies
are designed for highest efficiency to provide power efficiency without degrading performance of the
ProLiant. Power Supplies will have efficiency ratings up to 92%. There are three Right Size power options
available, depending on the configuration of your server. To make sure you select the correct power
supply to meet your configuration, we suggest that you use the HP Power Advisor to decide the "Right-
Size" for your configuration. All HP Common Slot power sources are UL, CE Mark Compliant, Hot Plug and
Redundant.
It is highly recommended that you use the HP Power Advisor in defining the "Right-Size" power supply for
your needs. HP offers Power Supply Options:
460Watts, Common Slot, 92% Efficiency
750Watts, Common Slot, 92% Efficiency
