Towers and Racks
Racks
Options are available to rack mount selected iSeries server models and towers. Rack
mounting allows multiple components to be mounted in a rack, conserving floor space and
providing a secure environment for the devices. Rack mounting is an important consideration
in ISP and ASP environments.
#0550 iSeries Rack
The #0550 iSeries Rack is a 1.8-meter rack with an iSeries server 830 installed. The #0550 is
ordered as a feature of the iSeries server 830 to be installed in the rack. The 830 server
occupies the lower 26 EIA units of the rack, leaving 10 EIA units available for installation of
other devices. When a #0550 is ordered, a #5101 30-Disk Unit Expansion is also ordered to
be installed in the 830 server.
The IBM configurator does not manage rack space in the #0550 rack.
Note: The #0550 is only valid on an initial order. Existing 830 servers cannot be installed in a
rack due to weight restrictions.
Up to two Power Distribution Units (PDU) may be installed in the #0550. The PDUs may be
ordered as part of the initial order or added at a later time. Each PDU has six power sockets
that provide power for devices that support the #1422 PDU Line Cord. A country specific line
cord must be ordered for each PDU to connect to external power. The supported PDUs are:
• #5160 Power Distribution Unit 1 Phase NEMA
• #5161 Power Distribution Unit 1 Phase IEC
• #5162 Power Distribution Unit 2 of 3 Phase
The iSeries server 830 does not support the #1422 PDU Line Cord and cannot be powered
by a PDU. A country specific line cord must be ordered for the 830 installed in the #0550
Rack.
