BL c7000 chassis differences

dkenn — Mon, 03 Mar 2008 18:09:01 GMT

My company purchased a blade chassis about a year ago with the part number 412152-B21. We are purchasing another chassis for a new datacenter, but this chassis' part number is 403220-B22.

What are the differences between these two and are the parts completely interchangeable. The reason I ask is because we are going to transition most of the blade servers, fans and power supplies from the old chassis to the new chassis.

Thank you,

DK

Interesting - I cannot find the second part number.

About the first one:

HP BLc7000 CTO Enclosure
NOTE: CTO model includes 1x Onboard Administrator, 4x Active Cool Fans and 0x power supplies.

For more info, check the quickspecs:

403320-B22 HP BLc7000 1 PH 2 PSU 4 Fan Trl ICE Kit.
Meaning its 1 Phase 2 power supplies and 4 Fan
Kit.
"fans and power supplies from the old chassis to the new chassis."
Should work fine in the new chassis.

Hi,

they are interchangeable for sure, even between c3000 and c7000 enclosures

DK,

I believe you are looking at 'almost' the same chassis. The new one has some slight changes,of which I recollect one: bigger LCD screen :) (seriously).

Fans & PSUs are the same though.

PAC - c3000 has the same fans as c7000, but different PSUs!

Rgds.
