HPE Virtual Connect Solutions v4 — Question 123

You are installing an HPE Nimble HF20 into a customer's existing rack.
Prior to installation, what should you consider?

Answer options

• A. An HPE Nimble array has left-to-right airflow
• B. HPE recommends installing the HPE Nimble array at the top of the rack
• C. The HPE Nimble array will require 3-phase power
• D. HPE recommends racks with a depth of 1200 mm

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer, D, is important because HPE specifies that a rack depth of 1200 mm is optimal for proper installation and airflow. Option A is incorrect as the airflow direction does not dictate rack requirements. Option B is misleading because while top placement can be beneficial, it is not a strict requirement. Option C is wrong since the HPE Nimble array does not necessarily require 3-phase power for installation.
