NEMA L6-30P, Russellstoll 3750DP IEC 309-332P6W
Power zones Two Two
Power requirements at site
● Up to three 30A, single-phase drops per zone.
● Each rack requires a minimum of two drops and can have a maximum of six drops.
The number of drops is determined by the system configuration and the power needs
for the configuration.
a.
L = line phase, N = neutral, G = ground
Three-phase power requirements
Three-phase power can be used for offers that are based on file storage.
NOTE:
These requirements are basic power and electrical requirements. Dell Technologies Services develops detailed
specifications for your specific APEX Data Storage Services installation.

● One 50A, three-phase drops per zone.
● Each rack requires two drops. The number of drops used is
determined by the system configuration and the power needs for
that configuration.

b.
An imbalance of AC input currents may exist on the three-phase power source feeding the array, depending on the
configuration. An electrician must be alerted to this possible condition to balance the phase-by-phase loading conditions
within the data center.
Network configurations
The network configuration for APEX Data Storage Services depends on whether your offer uses block or file services. Network
resources such as multiple IP addresses across multiple subnets are required. In addition, your APEX Data Storage Services
network configuration includes cabling and transceivers (where required) to connect to the network.
