Note – If the appropriate mating receptacle is not available in your country, the plug may be removed from the cord. The cord can then be permanently connected to a dedicated branch circuit by a qualified electrician. Check local electrical codes for proper installation requirements.

Warning – The system cabinet has a high leakage current to ground. Strictly observe the following instructions to reduce the risk of electric shock.

The system requires an electrical circuit that is grounded to earth. The UL1950,

CSA950, and EN60950 specify:

An insulated earthing conductor that is identical in size, insulation material, and thickness to the earthed and unearthed branch-circuit supply conductors, except that it is green with or without one or more yellow stripes, is to be installed as part of the branch circuit that supplies the unit or system. The earthing conductor described is to be connected to earth at the service equipment or, if supplied by a separately derived system, at the supply transformer or motor-generator set.

The attachment-plug receptacles in the vicinity of the unit or system are all to be of an earthing type, and the earthing conductors serving these receptacles are to be connected to earth at the service equipment.1

The power cord provides a ground path that will protect the drives and boards in the cabinet from static electricity damage.

4000, 5000, 6000 specifications

Sun Microsystems, a pivotal player in the computing industry during the late 20th and early 21st centuries, was renowned for its innovative hardware and software solutions. Among its notable offerings were the Sun-6000, Sun-5000, and Sun-4000 series, powerful workstations and servers designed for a range of enterprise-level applications.

The Sun-6000 series, introduced in the early 1990s, marked a significant advancement in computing performance. These systems were built on the SPARC architecture, which facilitated high levels of processing power and multitasking capabilities. One of the main features of the 6000 series was its scalability, allowing organizations to increase their processing power by adding more modules. It also offered robust graphics performance, making it ideal for scientific visualization and complex data analysis.

Next in line was the Sun-5000 series. Launched shortly after the 6000 series, the 5000 line was celebrated for its reliability and ease of management. This series emphasized a balanced architecture, which combined processing capabilities with ample memory and storage options. Key characteristics included support for multiple processors, leading to improved performance for demanding applications. Additionally, the 5000 systems featured advanced input/output capabilities, ensuring fast data transfers—crucial for database applications and web servers.

Finally, the Sun-4000 series targeted businesses seeking affordable yet potent computing solutions. These servers boasted a modular design, allowing for easy upgrades and maintenance. The 4000 series was particularly notable for its support for various operating systems, including SunOS and Solaris. These systems were engineered to handle a range of workloads, from enterprise resource planning to web hosting, while still fitting into a value-driven budget.

Across all three series, Sun Microsystems prioritized compatibility and integration, ensuring that each system offered seamless connectivity with Sun's software solutions and third-party applications. Their commitment to open standards and interoperability set them apart in the competitive landscape of enterprise computing. Additionally, the use of high-quality components lent the systems durability, making them a wise investment for organizations looking to future-proof their IT infrastructure.

In summary, the Sun-6000, 5000, and 4000 series exemplified Sun Microsystems' ethos of innovation and reliability. These powerful systems catered to diverse business needs, setting benchmarks in performance and functionality that continue to influence modern computing.
