30 IBM Power 770 and 780 Technical Overview and Introduction
1.12.2 IBM 7014 model T42 rack
The 2.0-meter (79.3-inch) Model T42 addresses the client requirement for a tall enclosure to
house the maximum amount of equipment in the smallest possible floor space. The features
that differ in the model T42 rack from the model T00 include:
It has 42U (EIA units) of usable space (6U of additional space).
The model T42 supports AC only.
Weights are:
– T42 base empty rack: 261 kg (575 lb)
– T42 full rack: 930 kg (2045 lb)
1.12.3 IBM 7014 model S25 rack
The 1.3-meter (49-inch) model S25 rack has the following features:
25U (EIA units)
Weights:
– Base empty rack: 100.2 kg (221 lb)
– Maximum load limit: 567.5 kg (1250 lb)
The S25 racks do not have vertical mounting space that accommodate feature number 7188
PDUs. All PDUs required for application in these racks must be installed horizontally in the
rear of the rack. Each horizontally mounted PDU occupies 1U of space in the rack, and
therefore reduces the space available for mounting servers and other components.
1.12.4 Feature number 0555 rack
The 1.3-meter rack (#0555) is a 25U (EIA units) rack. The rack that is delivered as #0555 is
the same rack delivered when you order the 7014-S25 rack. The included features might
differ. The #0555 is supported, but it is no longer orderable.
1.12.5 Feature number 0551 rack
The 1.8-meter rack (#0551) is a 36U (EIA units) rack. The rack that is delivered as #0551 is
the same rack delivered when you order the 7014-T00 rack. The included features might
differ. Several features that are delivered as part of the 7014-T00 must be ordered separately
with the #0551.
1.12.6 Feature number 0553 rack
The 2.0-meter rack (#0553) is a 42U (EIA units) rack. The rack that is delivered as #0553 is
the same rack delivered when you order the 7014-T42 or B42 rack. The included features
might differ. Several features that are delivered as part of the 7014-T42 or B42 must be
ordered separately with the #0553.
Note: A special door (#6250) and side panels (#6238) are available to make the rack
appear as a high-end server (but in a 19-inch rack format instead of a 24-inch rack).
Note: The Power 780 cannot be ordered with a S25 or B25 rack.
