Compaq PDUs include over-current and surge protection for both low and high voltage equipment
requirements and are equipped with circuit breakers to protect any connected system devices from damage
in the event of an incoming electrical surge or external equipment malfunction.
All of these PDUs have 12 outlets, with six outlets on each side of the PDU. As listed in Table 2-5, the
connector types used in the High Voltage and the Low Voltage PDUs are different.
These PDUs were in production before the availability of ProLiant DL360, and the installation procedures
of these PDUs need to be modified when they are used to support ProLiant DL360 servers.
The Vertical-Mount PDU Bracket Kit is required for all these PDUs for the rack configurations listed in
Section 3. There are two PDU bracket option kits available:
• P/N 166097-B21
is intended to be used with up to two High Voltage PDUs and includes the High
Voltage cables. Two of these kits (with cables) are needed to fully populate a 36U or a 42U rack with
ProLiant DL360 servers in a high voltage facility.
• P/N 191265-B21
is intended to be used with up to four Low Voltage PDUs and does not include any
cable. One kit (without cables) is needed to fully populate a 36U or a 42U rack with ProLiant DL360
servers in a low voltage facility. The 12-ft long power cords that come with each ProLiant DL360
server can be used with the Low Voltage PDUs.
