  • When the x4 RPS kit is installed and 3+1 power supply redundancy is selected, for minimum non-redundant configuration at least three power supply modules must be installed in the server. For full redundancy four power supply modules are required.

  • When the x4 RPS kit is installed and 2+2 power supply redundancy is selected, for minimum non-redundant configuration at least two power supply modules must be installed in the server. For full redundancy four power supply modules are required.

If more than two GPU cards are installed then the X4 RPS Enablement Kit must be installed to have enough GPU power connectors.

If more than three SFF hard drive cages are installed, then the X4 RPS Enablement Kit must be installed in order to have enough drive power connectors.

The x4 Redundant Power Supply Enablement (RPS) Kit only supports the HPE 800 W and HPE 1400 W Flex Slot Platinum hot-plug power supplies.
