Installing PDU/PDRUs

The 19-inch PDUs and PDRUs can be installed vertically or horizontally in the
rack. Choose PDU/PDRU locations with the following guidelines in mind:

■

Place PDU/PDRUs within the reach of disk system cords.

■

Place PDU/PDRUs vertically whenever possible. See sample installations in
Figure 10 and Figure 11. Installing PDU/PDRUs horizontally interferes with
the ability to service disk systems that are behind the PDU/PDRU.

■

Place vertical PDU/PDRUs on each side of the disk system so that the cord
from either power supply does not cross over replaceable components in the
middle of the product.

■

To achieve maximum density in 2-meter racks, install 30-amp PDRUs on
hinged brackets directly behind disk systems. Hinges allow the PDRU (HP
E7681A and E7682A) to swing aside for servicing obscured components.
(See Figure 11.)
