Power supplies

The base redundant system consists of two hot-plug power supplies in a 1+1 configuration available
at 1100W and 1400W. Dell power supplies have achieved Platinum efficiency levels as shown in
Table 14.

System power supply throttling feature

The PowerEdge C6145 supports a power supply throttling feature that protects the system if power
consumption exceeds the maximum for the supply (either 1400W or 1100W). In configurations
where power consumption is greater than the maximum, redundancy is lost, and the PowerEdge
C6145 throttles power consumption of the two- or four-independent nodes to stay within the
power budget. Performance is degraded in this mode, but the system continues to operate. After
you replace the failed power supply, redundancy is restored and all nodes resume normal operation.

With the thermal design and reliability of Dell products, you can have the
capability to operate at excursion-based temperatures beyond the industry
standard of 35°C (95°F) without impacting your availability model. This
solution takes into account servers, networking, storage, and other
infrastructure. Find additional information at Dell.com/FreshAir.
