A 60 amp Power Distribution Unit (PDU) has been developed for Integrity customers that prefer to use
fewer, higher amperage connections into their wall electrical infrastructure. This PDU is sold separately
and can be ordered with any HP Server solution. For more details on PDUs, please refer to the PDU
sales collateral.
The drawing below is an example of how the PDU can be configured with the HP 9000 rp8440 Server in
a dual grid configuration. In this case there are two HP 9000 rp8440 servers (average configurations
drawing ~9 amps each) and two 60 amp PDUs configured with redundant power. The blue cords
represent the primary power connections needed for normal operation. In this example, cords from each
server are plugged
into a separate branch circuits. However, it is acceptable, for lower VA configurations, for each server to
plug both grid A cords into one branch circuit and both grid B cords into second branch circuit. The
remaining PDU outlets can be used to power other components as long as the specifications for the PDU
rating are not exceeded.
For redundant power inputs, the second set of red cords is added. If the second PDU is plugged into a
second grid this configuration provides protection against:
Losing power from a single power grid
Accidental tripping of one or two circuit breakers
Accidental disconnect of a single PDU power cord
Accidental disconnect of up to four system power cords

A 30 amp Power Distribution Unit (PDU) is also supported with HP 9000 rp8440 Server. This PDU is
sold separately and can be ordered with any HP Server solution.
The following configuration guidelines apply when using the 30 amp PDU:
HP 9000 rp8440 Server plugs A0 and A1 should be plugged into the same PDU
Ax and Bx cords should never be plugged into the same PDU
Use two 30 amp PDUs to achieve input power redundancy. A0/A1 and B0/B1 into separate
PDUs.
Ordering tools will not force the purchase of a second PDU for input power redundancy. A second
PDU must be manually selected if redundant input power is desired.
