2 Installation Facility Guidelines
This section provides guidelines for preparing the installation site for Integrity NonStop
NS-series systems:
Modular Cabinet Power and I/O Cable Entry
Power and I/O cables can enter the Integrity NonStop NS-series server from either the
top or the bottom rear of the modular cabinets, depending on how the cabinets are
ordered from HP and the routing of the AC power feeds at the site. Integrity NonStop
NS-series server cabinets can be ordered with the AC power cords for the PDUs
exiting either:
•
Top: Power and I/O cables are routed from above the modular cabinet.
•
Bottom: Power and I/O cables are routed from below the modular cabinet
For information about modular cabinet power and cable options, refer to Modular
Cabinets on page 5-4.
Note. For installation facility guidelines specific to the Integrity NonStop NS14000 system, see
Section 8, Integrity NonStop NS14000 System Description.

Note. If your system includes the optional rackmounted HP R5500 XR UPS, the modular
cabinet will have one PDU located on the rear left side and four extension bars on the rear right
side. To provide redundancy, components are plugged into the left-side PDU and the extension
bars. Each extension bar is plugged into the UPS. The R5500 XR UPS AC input power cord is
routed as described above, and the large output receptacle is unused.
