IBM System x3750 M4 (E5-4600 v2) 24
Power supplies
The server supports up to two redundant power supplies. Standard models come with one or two 900 W
power supplies (model dependent; see Table 2). 1400 W AC and 750 W DC power supplies also available
through CTO or Special Bid.
Installing a second power supply requires that the processor and memory expansion tray (88Y7365) or the
power interposer card (88Y7367) be installed. The power interposer card option enables redundancy
power support when the processor and memory expansion tray is not installed. If you do not have the
processor and memory expansion tray installed and want to install two power supplies, then the power
interposer card must be installed.

* The power interposer is not needed if the processor and memory expansion tray (88Y7365) is installed.
Each AC power supply ships standard with one 2.8 m C13 - C14 power cord.
Two installed power supplies form a redundant pair. Under extreme configurations, with two 1400 W
supplies installed, it might still be possible to exceed 1400 W DC output. If this condition exists and a
power supply fails, the server caps power at 1400 W until the second power supply is back online.
Integrated virtualization
The server supports VMware ESXi installed on a USB memory key. The key is installed in a USB socket
inside the server. Table 17 lists the virtualization options.
