Cabinets

HP modular cabinets for the Integrity NonStop NS-series system are 42U high with

labels on the sides of the rack indicating the U positions.

These U indicators are used to locate existing hardware in the cabinet and to

determine the correct position (called offset) for installing new hardware during on-site

system expansion.

Each HP modular cabinet includes front and rear doors, the 19-inch rack for mounting

the system hardware enclosures, and two power distribution units (PDUs). To

accommodate the PDUs without using space needed for the other modular hardware

components, Integrity NonStop NS-series cabinets are deeper than 19-inch racks for

other systems.

AC Power PDUs

Each of the two PDUs in a modular cabinet has:

•

14 AC power outlets per PDU

•

Two fuses per outlet

Each PDU receives power from the site AC power source:

•

208 V ac, three-phase delta for North America and Japan

•

230/400 V ac three-phase wye for Europe, Middle East, and Africa

•

200-250 V ac single phase for international

Each PDU distributes the AC site power as single phase 200 to 250 V ac to the 14

outlets for connecting the power cords from the enclosures mounted in the modular

cabinet. These outlets are factory-wired to provide the 180-254 V ac required by the

modular hardware.
