HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen11 Power Supplies
Genuine HPE Flex Slot power supplies for the HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen11, new and refurbished. The platform runs one or two hot-plug PSUs in Platinum and Titanium efficiency grades — two matching supplies give full 1+1 redundancy.
DL380 Gen11 Power Supply Specifications
- Family: HPE Flex Slot hot-plug, tool-less modules
- AC options: 800W Platinum, 1000W Titanium, 1600W Platinum, and 1800W–2200W Titanium (all Low Halogen variants)
- DC option: 1600W –48VDC for telecom and DC power plants
- Quantity: one or two; two matching PSUs provide 1+1 redundancy
- Rules: both installed PSUs must match — mixing models is not supported; 1600W-class and larger units require high-line 200–240VAC
- Gen11 detail worth knowing: the 1800W–2200W Titanium unit reaches its full output only on Gen11-and-later platforms — it is capped at 1600W in Gen10/Gen10 Plus servers
Match before you add. Both power supplies in a DL380 Gen11 must be the identical model — mixing is not supported — and 1600W-class and larger units require 200–240VAC high-line power.
How many power supplies does the DL380 Gen11 need?
| Configuration | PSUs | Typical choice |
|---|---|---|
| General-purpose build | 2 (1+1 redundant) | 800W or 1000W |
| Loaded: high-TDP CPUs, NVMe, GPUs | 2 (1+1 redundant) | 1600W or 1800W–2200W |
| DC power plant / telecom | 1–2 | 1600W –48VDC |
Production systems should run two supplies — hot-plug modules then let you replace a failed unit without downtime. Size the exact build with HPE Power Advisor: two 350W-class processors, 32 DIMMs, and a full NVMe complement sit in a very different envelope than an entry build.
Choosing the Right DL380 Gen11 Power Supply
- Never mix wattages or models — both PSUs in the chassis must be identical.
- Check your feed: 800W and 1000W units accept standard ranges; 1600W-class and larger require 200–240VAC high-line power.
- Reusing a 1800W–2200W unit from a Gen10? It works, but only Gen11 unlocks output above 1600W — same part, different ceiling by generation.
- Refurbished PSUs are a low-risk buy — sealed, tested modules and a popular way to add redundancy affordably.

DL380 Gen11 Power Supplies FAQ
What power supplies does the HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen11 use?
HPE Flex Slot hot-plug PSUs: 800W Platinum, 1000W Titanium, 1600W Platinum, and 1800W-2200W Titanium AC units, plus a 1600W -48VDC option. The server runs one or two, always matching.
Can I mix different power supplies in the DL380 Gen11?
No - both units must be the same model and wattage. When adding redundancy, buy the exact part number already installed.
Do the 1600W power supplies work on 110V power?
No - 1600W-class and larger units require high-line 200-240VAC. If you only have low-line power available, use the 800W Platinum or 1000W Titanium units.
Why does the 1800W-2200W power supply only deliver 1600W in my other server?
That unit's output is capped at 1600W in Gen10 and Gen10 Plus servers - output above 1600W is only achievable on Gen11-and-later platforms like the DL380 Gen11. Same part, different ceiling by generation.
Can I hot-swap a failed DL380 Gen11 power supply?
Yes, provided two supplies are installed (1+1 redundancy) - pull the failed module and insert the replacement without shutting down.
