Re: Use of rack power for a Power 7 system

I would suspect that the switch(if a non home-use switch) would support the power output of the PDU in the rack. there should be a UL sticker but the power input that lists what inputs the switch can handle.

hope is shows 100 - 240 V

from there you should be able to use a "PDU" power cord the plugs into the PDU and the back of the switch.

if the switch powercannot be removed fro mthe back of the switch and it supports 220 there are adapters similar to:

Folks:

First off, as some may know, I'm not a hardware guy .... but I've been
thrust into having to deal with our hardware.

That said ... I'm trying to 'tidy up' our new Power 7 system's rack.

We have a rack mount switch that I have (finally) installed in the
rack. The issue now is power. It's got a standard 110 volt (2 prong)
adapter.

Our rack has a power distribution unit that looks like this:

I have two questions ...

1. Is the power output by the pictured unit 110 volts suitable for the
switch, and ...
2. Where can I get an adapter to plug a two prong 110 volt power brick
into the unit?

Thanks!
