HPE 720482-S21 800 Watts Power Supply Redundant Power Supply

Product Description

The HPE 720482-S21 is an 800-watt power supply unit (PSU) designed to provide robust and reliable power to Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) servers and storage solutions. Its primary function is to convert AC power from the wall outlet into the DC power required by the internal components of the server. This specific model is built with redundancy in mind, meaning it is designed to work in conjunction with a second identical power supply. If one unit fails, the other takes over the entire power load, preventing downtime and ensuring continuous operation of critical systems. This power supply is hot-swappable, allowing it to be removed and replaced without shutting down the server. This feature is essential for maintaining high availability in enterprise data centers where uptime is crucial. The 800-watt capacity is suitable for a wide range of HPE server configurations, including those with multiple processors, extensive memory, and numerous hard drives or SSDs. While the specific efficiency rating isn't listed in the title, HPE typically equips its server power supplies with 80 Plus certifications (e.g., Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum) to ensure energy efficiency and reduced heat output. As a component of HPE's ProLiant server ecosystem, the 720482-S21 is engineered for compatibility and performance within HPE's validated hardware platforms. It ensures that the power delivery meets the demanding requirements of enterprise workloads, contributing to the overall stability and longevity of the server hardware. This power supply is a critical piece of infrastructure for any business relying on HPE servers for their operations.
