BL p-Class power enclosure provides external, shared hot-plug power. Each three-phase power enclosure
houses up to six hot-plug power supplies each single-phase power enclosures hold up to four hot-plug power
supplies to power the BL p-Class server blades and interconnects
Please use the sizing utility to determine the power needed for each configuration.
http://activeanswers.compaq.com/aaconfigurator/PowerCalc/BL20p.xls
Power enclosures and power supplies are not needed if using facility DC (-48V DC ± 10%). If using facility DC,
only Facility DC Power Connection kit part number (240563-B21) is needed.
In the ProLiant BL p-Class infrastructure, redundant -48 VDC power (from the power enclosures or facility DC
power) is distributed from the power enclosures to the server blade enclosures through the Compaq bus bar
system. Hinges attach the ProLiant BL bus bars to the rails in a rack. The bus bars swing open from the center to
enable easy rear access to the server blades and network cables. Power is distributed redundantly through
independent A- and B-sided bus bars.
Three different power distribution solutions are available depending on the maximum number of server blade
enclosures planned for the rack:
• Compaq ProLiant BL p-Class scalable bus bar
• Compaq ProLiant BL p-Class mini bus bar
Note: To support a full 42U rack of BL20p server blades (6 server blade enclosures), two mini bus bars are
needed.
• Compaq ProLiant BL p-Class power bus box

required.
• Rack 9000 and 10000 series Cabinets
The increasing power of new high-performance processor technology requires increased cooling
efficiency for rack-mounted servers. The Compaq 9000 Series Rack and the new 10000 Series Racks
provides enhanced airflow for maximum cooling, allowing these racks to be fully loaded with servers
using the latest processors.
• Rack 7000 series Cabinets

7000 series racks with glass doors (165753-001 (42U), and 163747-001 (22U)), the new processor

CAUTION: If a third-party rack is used, observe the following additional requirements to ensure adequate airflow
CAUTION: Always use blanking panels to fill all remaining empty front panel U-spaces in the rack. This
and to prevent damage to the equipment:
o Front and rear doors:
allow 830 square inches (5,350 sq cm) of hole evenly distributed from top to bottom to permit

o Side:
