Fibre Channel signals travel from a HP ProLiant BL25p server blade with a
Dual-Port Fibre Channel Adapter through p-Class server blade enclosure
backplane. The Fibre Channel signals are terminated through the RJ-45
Patch Panel 2 in the interconnect bays. To provide redundancy each server
blade has two Fibre Channel signals and one Fibre Channel signal
terminates through the right RJ-45 Patch Panel 2, one Fibre Channel signal
travels terminates through the left RJ-45 Patch Panel 2.
8 Fibre Channel small form factor pluggable (SPF) transceiver slots on the
front of each RJ-45 patch panel 2 (16 Fibre Channel connections per server
blade enclosure); for insertion of SPF transceivers included with the Dual-port
Fibre Channel Adapter

HP BladeSystem p-Class 3U power enclosure provides external, shared hot-plug power. Each threephase 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

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 HP BladeSystem 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 bus
bar system. Hinges attach the HP BladeSystem 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:
HP BladeSystem p-Class scalable bus bar
HP BladeSystem p-Class mini bus bar
HP BladeSystem p-Class power bus box
NOTE:
NOTE:
To support a full 42U rack of HP ProLiant BL25p server blades (6 server blade enclosures), two
NOTE:NOTE:
mini bus bars are needed.
