Electrical Requirements
The servers use AC power. The following table contains the power supply specifications
for the servers.
Note -
The power dissipation numbers listed in the following table are the maximum rated
power numbers for the power supply used in the server. The numbers are not a rating
of the actual power consumption of the server.
The servers can operate effectively over a range of voltages and frequencies.

|
Voltage (nominal)
|
100-240 VAC
|
Input current (maximum)
|
100-127 VAC 7.2 A and 200-240 VAC 3.4 A
|
Frequency (nominal)
|
50/60 Hz (47 to 63 Hz range)
|
Maximum power consumption
|
2400 W
|
Maximum heat output
|
11600 BTU/Hr

![Caution Caution](graphics/electrical.gif) | Caution -
Servers must have a reliable power source. If the system exceeds the ranges,
damage to the server might occur. Electrical disturbances, such as the following,
might damage the system:
-
Fluctuations caused by brownouts
-
Wide and rapid variations in input voltage levels or in input power
frequency
-
Electrical storms
-
Faults in the distribution system, such as defective wiring
|
To protect your server from such disturbances, use a dedicated power distribution
system, power-conditioning equipment, and lightning arresters or power cables for
protection from electrical storms.
See the following additional power specifications.
