1. Each enclosure must include only one type of power supply. Mixing is not supported, except during hot swaps to different level
or higher efficient power supplies. The Onboard Administrator will exhibit a mismatch error due to mixed power supplies until all
are matched.
2. The three phase power input modules (413380-B21 and 413381-B21) require a minimum of 3 power supplies.
3. The Onboard Administrator firmware must be at least the minimum version that supports all components installed within the
enclosure.

1. Each enclosure must include only one type of power supply. Mixing is not supported, except during hot swaps to different level or higher efficient power supplies. The
Onboard Administrator will exhibit a mismatch error due to mixed power supplies until all are matched.
2. At 50% of rated load. Platinum and Gold power supplies are 80Plus certified, see www.80plus.org. Power supplies with DC capability are not eligible for 80Plus certification,
efficiency is per HP internal testing.
3. Three phase power input modules require a minimum of 3 power supplies.
