HPE ProLiant DL560 Gen11 Power Supplies
Genuine HPE Flex Slot power supplies for the HPE ProLiant DL560 Gen11, new and refurbished. A four-socket 2U server is power-hungry by design — this platform runs two to four hot-plug PSUs with flexible redundancy schemes, in Platinum and Titanium efficiency grades from 800W to 2200W.
DL560 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
- DC option: 1600W –48VDC for telecom and DC power plants
- Quantity & redundancy: minimum 2, maximum 4 PSUs; supported schemes 1+1, 2+2, and 3+1 (the 4-PSU enablement kit adds the third and fourth bays)
- Rules: all installed PSUs must match — mixing models is not supported; 1600W and larger units require high-line 200–240VAC
- Gen11 detail worth knowing: the 1800W–2200W Titanium unit is capped at 1600W output in Gen10/Gen10 Plus servers — output above 1600W is only achievable in Gen11
Match before you add. Every power supply installed in a DL560 Gen11 must be the identical model — mixing wattages is not supported — and 1600W-class and larger units require 200–240VAC high-line power. Going from two to four PSUs also takes the 4x Power Supply Enablement Kit.
How many power supplies does the DL560 Gen11 need?
| Configuration | PSUs | Typical choice |
|---|---|---|
| 2 processors, moderate load | 2 (1+1 redundant) | 1000W or 1600W |
| 4 processors, loaded | 4 (2+2 redundant) | 1600W or 1800W–2200W |
| DC power plant | 2–4 | 1600W –48VDC |

Choosing the Right DL560 Gen11 Power Supply
- Never mix wattages or models — every PSU in the chassis must be identical.
- Going from 2 to 4 PSUs? Add the DL560 Gen11 4x Power Supply Enablement Kit along with the additional matched supplies.
- Check your feed: 800W and 1000W units accept 100–240VAC; 1600W-class and larger require 200–240VAC high-line power.
- Refurbished PSUs are a low-risk buy — sealed, tested modules and a popular way to add redundancy affordably.

DL560 Gen11 Power Supplies FAQ
What power supplies does the HPE ProLiant DL560 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 a minimum of two and a maximum of four, all matching.
How many power supplies does a 4-processor DL560 Gen11 need?
Heavily loaded 4P systems typically run four PSUs in 2+2 redundancy (the 4x Power Supply Enablement Kit adds bays three and four). Supported redundancy schemes are 1+1, 2+2, and 3+1.
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 in Gen11 platforms like the DL560 Gen11. Same part, different ceiling by generation.
Can I hot-swap a failed DL560 Gen11 power supply?
Yes, provided the system is running a redundant scheme (1+1, 2+2, or 3+1) - pull the failed module and insert the replacement without shutting down.
Do the 1600W power supplies work on 110V power?
No - 1600W and larger units require high-line 200-240VAC. If you only have low-line power available, the 800W Platinum and 1000W Titanium units accept 100-240VAC.
