HPE 8325 850W 48VDC Front-to-Back Power Supply

The HPE 8325 850W 48VDC Front-to-Back Power Supply is a high-efficiency, hot-swappable DC power option engineered to deliver stable 48V power to the HPE 8325 networking platform. Built for demanding data centers and enterprise environments, this power supply emphasizes reliability, serviceability, and energy efficiency. It is designed to fit seamlessly into compatible HPE chassis, offering a streamlined installation process, minimal downtime, and robust performance under load. Whether upgrading an existing deployment or expanding capacity for critical workloads, this PSU is engineered to maximize uptime, simplify maintenance, and optimize rack space with front-to-back airflow that aligns with common data-center cooling strategies.

  • High-capacity 850W output for peak workloads. This power supply provides ample headroom to support busy ports, uplinks, and power-hungry modules, helping to prevent performance dips during traffic spikes and ensuring consistent performance across the entire HPE 8325 system. With generous margin for growth, it reduces the need for frequent ballast relocations or upgrades when your network expands.
  • 48V DC input designed for HPE power architectures. The 48V DC input aligns with the internal power distribution of the HPE 8325 platform, enabling efficient DC power delivery to line cards and fabric components. This design minimizes conversion losses and supports reliable operation in standard data-center electrical environments, contributing to lower total cost of ownership over the product lifecycle.
  • Front-to-back airflow optimizes data-center cooling. The power supply’s orientation and thermal design push hot air toward the rear of the rack, helping to maintain a cooler front-end environment for adjacent devices. This arrangement pairs well with common cooling strategies and can simplify airflow planning in dense racks or hot-aisle configurations.
  • Hot-swappable, tool-less installation for rapid maintenance. Replacing a failed unit or performing routine swaps takes place without powering down the entire system. The module slides into the chassis with a secure latch, and typical maintenance windows are shortened thanks to straightforward handling and diagnostic indicators that guide personnel to a quick, safe replacement.
  • Redundancy-ready with clear health indicators. In deployments requiring high availability, the PSU supports redundant configurations within the supported chassis ecosystem. Built-in LEDs provide at-a-glance health status, while compatibility with management interfaces enables proactive monitoring, alerting, and rapid remediation when parameters drift from optimal ranges.

how to install HPE 8325 850W 48VDC Front-to-Back Power Supply

  • Power down the system only if required by your organization’s maintenance policy, and disconnect any external power sources if applicable.
  • Inspect the empty PSU slot and confirm there is no visible damage to the chassis or surrounding components before proceeding.
  • Ground yourself using proper anti-static precautions to prevent damage to sensitive electronics during installation.
  • Remove the protective blank or the failed unit from the PSU slot, then align the new 850W 48VDC power supply with the slot guides and slide it in firmly.
  • Secure the module using the chassis latch or locking mechanism until it engages with a solid click, indicating a proper connection.
  • Connect the 48V DC input cables per your data-center wiring standards, ensuring correct polarity and solid, vibration-free connections.
  • Power on the chassis and monitor the front LEDs and management interface for a healthy power-readout. If the LED shows an amber or red indication, refer to the chassis diagnostic tools or hardware logs for validation.
  • Verify that the system recognizes the new PSU and that the associated health indicators reflect normal operation. In redundant configurations, confirm that both units contribute to overall uptime as designed.
