Could someone direct me to the rack/ power device that this connects to?

Really?

This thread had 95 views. That makes me assume not many people know what it is.

I have done Google and eBay searches and not found anything.

If you know what it is can you enlighten me?

Looks like I found my answer. Just had to change the search terms a bit.

Looks like you'd need 3-4 more pieces to get one of these working. I guess I'll just buy a server that has the normal AC computer connector.

Looks like you don't know what you are doing........

You have a blade server ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blade_server ).  They usually aren't very useful without a chassis to stick a bunch of them in.

This.  Not sure why OP bought it.  The purpose is to save space in a datacenter.  Single chassis in say 4U of space holding more than 4 servers.  Generally they are much more expensive and unless the space in your house runs $500+ per sq ft it makes absolutely no sense outside of a datacenter.

At first I didn't know what it was. However, I did recognize it as a blade server, so I was wondering how you didn't know what it was if you've got one.

BTW, a reverse image search gave me the model number in about 30 seconds. After that, it was another 2 min to do an ebay search for a chassis/backplate/PSUs.
