ESS Support VDC 270 Power input

For higher energy conversion efficiency, the datacentor is constructed with dual DC power inputs. Doing so is more environmentally friendly and reduces carbon emissions. Our datacentor construction is all dual-channel high-voltage DC, and will continue to take this road.

Supporting only AC power can greatly limit the suitable scenarios for the product. Supporting both alternating current and direct current is the trend of technology development.
Most of compute nodes support both AC and DC.


Since the ESS power supply PSU supports both AC and DC, does it mean that ESS products also support two power supply modes?



Products includes ESS3200 and ems(p9 5105-22e)
