Features/Benefits
Titanium-Certified Power Efficiency
• Titanium (96%) power efficiency certification from 80Plus program – one of the highest power
efficiency certifications available in the IT industry
• Reduces data center operating costs related to power by reducing server power requirements
and power waste
Flex Slot
Design
• Tool-less hot plug design improves serviceability buy allowing quick and easy access to system
power supplies
• Common form factor across all ProLiant Gen9 and Gen10servers allows multiple server
platforms to share power supply spares, reducing cost and space requirements for spares
Multiple Power Output
Options
• Multiple output options allowing users to "right-size" their power needs and avoid "trapped"
power capacity in their data centers caused by over-subscribing power needs
• Support for both low-line and high-line AC input voltages providing additional flexibility to
operate in multiple It environments (500W and 800W Platinum only). -48VDC, 277VAC and
380VDC input voltages are also available.
Power Management
• Supports multiple operating modes to maximize power efficiency when configuring servers with
redundant power supplies
• Integrated support for HPE
’s Power Discovery Services which communicates with the intelligent
PDU to monitor and manage power usage (Gen9 800W Titanium and Gen9 1400W Platinum
Plus only)
80Plus Certification
The 80PLUS test protocol was developed jointly by Ecova Plug Load Solutions and the Electric Power
Research Institute (EPRI) in 2003, with the program being formally launched in 2004.
The 80 PLUS performance
specification requires power supplies in servers to be 80% or greater energy
efficient at 20%, 50% and 100% of rated load with a true power factor of 0.9 or greater. This makes an 80
PLUS certified power supply substantially more efficient than typical power supplies found in many other
electrical devices.
Who benefits from the 80PLUS power supply program?
• Commercial/Residential Consumers -
empowered with information regarding energy efficient IT
options that help them cut energy costs and reduce their environmental impact
• Utility/Power Providers - participation in a program that focuses on reducing power demands
on overburdened grids as well as reducing power waste and its associated environmental
impact
