Power and Current for Estimating Supply Needs

When plugging devices into a PDU and UPS, do not exceed the current capacity
of the PDU nor the power output UPS. Tables 2-6 and 2-7 show the current
requirements of the common rack mounted devices.
Rack configuration utilities available from HP can help you plan the layout of
your rack. Full parts lists as well as diagrams of component positions are
available. Refer to these if they are available. (See "Rack Configuration Tools" in
this chapter.)
