Revision distinctionsSS-300TFX is a model family with sub-revisions; bronze/gold ratings and connectors vary. This entry is limited to label-verified SS-300TFX, not every suffix.

Compatibility & safe handling

  • Verify full model, suffix, region and revision using the actual unit nameplate and matching manufacturer manual. Wattage and plug shape alone do not establish compatibility.
  • Check AC input range, rail and combined output limits, derating, signaling/pinout, cooling direction, mounting and system qualification before installation.
  • PSU modular-side cables are model-specific. Never reuse an unapproved lead; a matching plug can carry a different pinout.
  • Server hot-plug is permitted only in qualified host configurations and under the host’s documented redundancy/live-service procedure.
  • Never open or internally probe the supply. Retire damaged, wet, burnt, corroded, modified or unidentified units.

Revision & archival notes

SS-300TFX is a model family with sub-revisions; bronze/gold ratings and connectors vary. This entry is limited to label-verified SS-300TFX, not every suffix.

Retain actual suffix, label table and datasheet. TFX mounting rails are not SFX/Flex ATX; verify system-specific fan and airflow orientation.

Photograph the full nameplate, model/FRU, supplier, revision/date code, line selector, cable ends, mounting orientation and source-document issue. Keep observed label data separate from test results.
