EVA8000 racks (based on the HP 10000 G2 Series Rack) are equipped with suitable 0U Power
Distribution Units (PDUs) according to the voltage used in the country the solution is ordered. These
PDUs provide redundant power and are located in the bottom and back of the cabinet for power cable
entrance by the floor. The PDUs are 220/240V. The 220/240V PDUs are 0U high with a total of two AC
power cords extending outside the cabinet.
For the EVA4000 and EVA6000 a variety of HP 10000 G2 Series Rack offerings and integration options
are available. The EVA configurator tools utilize a 42U HP 10000 G2 Series Rack as the standard
recommendation and will provide a 220/240V PDU and country specific power cords. The
EVA4000/6000 t configurations can be customized to meet a wide variety of customer needs. Both the
height and types of rack and PDUs can be modified based upon the specific customer need. If other
devices, such as servers, switches or back-up devices, are to be installed with the EVA; this can be
specified and the cabinets and PDUs can be modified to support the configuration. The EVA4000/6000
also support 36U racks and 100V PDU (Supported in Japan Q206).
The EVA also supports the Rack System/E and 5642 (42U) Rack Cabinet System as field installed
