Optional

System Cabinet
• Expanded Base System Cabinet includes two 3-phase power regulators with space for one additional 3-phase

power regulator. System cabinets shipped after June 1996 (H9F00-FC/FD/FE Rev B03 or later) include the

H7263-AC/AD non-battery backup ready power regulator.

• Maximum four I/O channels per cabinet; PCI Plug-in Units require one I/O channel connection
• Four lower expansion bays are available for Plug-in Units; the lower bays accommodate Plug-in Units as

follows:

- Disk Plug-in Unit (BA670-AA/AB), maximum of four, front or rear expansion bay

- Battery Plug-in Unit (H7237-AA/AC/CA/CB), maximum of one, front or rear expansion bay

- PCI Plug-in Unit (DWLPB-AA), maximum of two, rear expansion bay only

I/O Expansion Cabinet
• I/O expansion cabinet includes one 3-phase power regulator, and provides space for two additional 3-phase

power regulators

• H9F00-JC/JD/JE Rev C03 or later cabinets include H7263-AC or H7263-AD non-BBU capable power regulator
• I/O Expansion cabinet can be configured to hold all disk Plug-in Units or combination of disk Plug-in Units and

PCI Plug-in Units

• Six expansion bays – two upper and four lower – are available for Plug-in Units; the two upper bays

accommodate a maximum of two disk Plug-in Units; the four lower bays accommodate Plug-in Units as

follows:

- Upper bay – Disk Plug-in Unit (BA670-AA/AB, maximum two, front or rear expansion bay

- Lower bay – Disk Plug-in Unit (BA670-AA/AB), maximum four, front or rear expansion bay

- Lower bay – PCI Plug-in Unit (DWLPB-AB), maximum two, rear expansion bay only

- Lower bay – Battery Plug-in Unit (H7237-AA/AC/ CA/CB), maximum one, front or rear expansion bay

Optional

• System Cabinet and I/O Expansion Cabinets must be same type, either 3-phase or single-phase; mixing of 3-

phase and single-phase cabinets in same system configuration is not supported

• Determine the need for adding third power regulator by filling in the EPU Power Configuration Table
• Power Configuration Table provides a manual method for determining the need for a third power regulator.

Equivalent power unit (EPU) is an equivalent value of power used (48 VDC) by each option.

3-Phase Expansion Components
• Select additional H7263-AC/AD for expansion cabinets that do not require battery backup option: If EPU value

of first regulator is exceeded, if N+1 redundancy is required, if third power regulator is required

• Select H7237-CA/CB for systems that require battery backup (factory installed). It includes battery Plug-in Unit,

one H7263-AA/AB power regulator, and batteries for battery backup/UPS capability. It must be ordered at

time of system purchase if BBU functionality is required. H7263-AA/AB mounts alongside the standard

H7263-AC/AD. It provides eight minutes per regulator.

• Select H7238-BA/BB for additional battery UPS (factory installed). Includes H7263-AA/AB and H7238-AA 4-

pack battery option for second and third regulator support

Battery option for I/O Expansion Cabinet, fully loaded battery cabinet supports three power regulators;

provides 16 minutes per regulator; maximum one per H9F00-BA/BB/BC expansion cabinet

H9B00-AF

Power Option for StorageWorks Shelves in StorageWorks Plug-in Units
• Provides N+1 power for BA670-AB, BA671-AA StorageWorks PIUs/shelves; occupies one slot in StorageWorks

shelf

48 VDC 150W Redundant Enhanced Power Supply for BA670-AB, BA671-AA, includes 48 VDC jumper

cable for connecting to first power supply in StorageWorks shelf.
