HPE X371 400W AC Power Supply - 400 W - 120 V AC, 230 V AC - JL480A#ABA

The HPE X371 400W AC Power Supply - 400 W - 120 V AC, 230 V AC - JL480A#ABA is a power supply unit designed for HPE servers, particularly for models within the HPE ProLiant series that require lower power capacity compared to high-wattage options like the 2750 W modules.

Key Features :

1. Power Output:

   • The power supply provides 400 watts of power, which is suitable for low- to mid-range HPE servers, where high capacity is not as critical. This power module is designed for systems with lower power demands compared to the higher-output modules (like the 2750W).

2. AC Input Voltage:

   • It supports both 120 V AC and 230 V AC input, making it versatile for use in different regions around the world, depending on the electrical standards.
   • 120 V AC is typically used in North America, while 230 V AC is standard in most other parts of the world, including Europe and Asia.

3. Efficiency:

   • Although the efficiency rating is not always explicitly listed for this model, HPE generally designs its power supplies to be highly efficient to minimize energy consumption, heat production, and operational costs.

4. Form Factor:

   • The power supply is designed to fit into HPE's 1U and 2U rack-mountable servers, making it a good fit for smaller and mid-sized enterprise environments.

5. Redundancy:

   • It is often used in redundant configurations for servers that require constant uptime. Multiple power supplies can be installed in a server, ensuring that if one fails, the others can continue to provide power without disrupting operations.

6. Hot-Swap:

   • Like many HPE power supplies, the JL480A#ABA likely supports hot-swapping, meaning the power supply can be replaced without having to power down the server, which is important for maintaining uptime in critical environments.

7. Compatibility:

   • The JL480A#ABA is compatible with specific HPE ProLiant models, especially those that are designed for standard workloads and do not require the heavy-duty power output of larger supplies.

Common Use Cases:

• Small to Medium Enterprise Servers: Perfect for businesses that need reliable power for basic to moderate workloads, such as file servers, web servers, and application servers.
• Redundant Power Systems: Used in configurations where you want backup power to ensure high availability.
• Data Centers: Can be part of a setup that doesn’t require the larger 1000W or 2000W power supplies but still needs reliable and efficient power for lighter workloads.
