Power outlet requirements

Plan for the required power outlets when planning for the installation of your storage units.

The following power outlets are required:

  • Two independent power outlets for the two DS6000™ power line cords needed by each base model and expansion model.
    Important: To eliminate a single point of failure, the outlets must be independent. This means that each outlet must use a separate power source and each power source must have its own wall circuit breaker.
  • Two outlets that are within 3.1 m (10 ft.) of the external management console. Typically, these outlets will be in a rack that you provide.
