Hello: We are planning to deploy a single IBM BladeCenter H Chassis with multiple blades at our hosted rack at the datacenter.
IBM blades require 208V and ibm suggested a power cord with Double 30A NE MA L6-30P Line Cord (Part# 25R5783) – One for each circuit for power redundancy. The external provider will provide two 208V circuits at 20amps ( one live and one redundant ). We also have Dell equipment and other which need the normal 120V but can operate between 110 and 240V with the regular C15 type of plugs. XO provides single phase power.
Are there any PDU's which will take 208V/20Amps and cover both types of equipment for IBm and Non IBM cover both types of plus. Any help is much appreciated.
Why not run everything at 208V? IBM blade server chassis can use C19 cords, instead of NEMA. Dell equipment can use C13s. Get a 208V power strip that has both types of outlets, like the APC AP7540. Stayonline.com has cords, power strips, lots of stuff to make your life easy.
