Supermicro PWS-1K21P-1R 1200 Watts Redundant Power Supply For SC745

Product Description

This Supermicro PWS-1K21P-1R power supply unit is a critical component for ensuring continuous operation within the Supermicro SC745 server chassis. Delivering a robust 1200 watts of power, it is engineered to handle the high demands of enterprise-grade server hardware, including multiple processors, extensive memory, and numerous storage devices. Its redundant design means that two such units are typically installed, providing failover protection in case one unit malfunctions, thereby preventing downtime. The power supply boasts a high efficiency rating, often Platinum or Titanium, which translates to lower energy consumption and reduced heat generation. This not only contributes to a greener IT infrastructure but also lowers operating costs. The hot-swappable nature of the unit allows administrators to replace a faulty power supply without shutting down the server, a feature essential for maintaining high availability in critical environments. Featuring Active Power Factor Correction (PFC), the PWS-1K21P-1R ensures that the power drawn from the AC mains is utilized efficiently, minimizing electrical interference. It is designed to operate across a wide input voltage range (typically 100-240V AC), making it suitable for deployment in diverse geographical locations with varying power standards. This power supply is a key element in building reliable and efficient server solutions.
