3U (5.25-inch), 19-inch wide, 29-inch deep (0.48-metre wide, 0.74-metre deep), dual input single phase and three phase
models available.
BL p-Class power enclosure provides scalable rack-centralized, hot-plug power without the need for PDUs.
Each 3 phase power enclosure houses six hot-plug power supplies
Each single-phase power enclosure holds four hot-plug power supplies
Please use the sizing utility to determine the power needed for each configuration

NOTE:
3 phase power enclosure options highly recommended for BL30p deployments.
Power enclosures and power supplies are not needed if using facility DC (-48V DC ± 10%). If using facility DC, Facility DC
Power Connection kit (240563-B21) is needed.

Distribution
-48 VDC power (from the power enclosures or facility DC power) is carried from the power enclosures to the server blade
enclosures through bus bars (for multiple enclosures) or power bus boxes (for a single enclosure). Hinges attach the bus bars
to the rack rails and provide easy rear access to the blade enclosures and interconnects. Power is distributed through
independent A- and B-sided bus bars.
Three power distribution solutions are available depending on the size of the intended deployment (see table).
