Hi Guys,

I dont know too much about Comms cabinets and networking so apologies for the stupid question.

I am looking to design a small comms room for a college assignment but dont know much about the loads used. I am guessing some large server units might use around 6 - 10 kw but aint sure.

If anyone had any info on a particular server unit or power rating i would be delighted.....

Thanks

i'm dealing with HP servers only :

good luck

You can always query the servers & equipment over snmp, that will give you exactly the power load
