IBM DPS-4KW PSU (Dual DPS-2000BB) Breakout Boards and Packages!!!

[VirosaGITS]

I sourced my own parts, at least, PSU, board, cable, tie wrap. I'm wondering if there is a safer way to hold the 2 PSU strongly together, than i came up with? (Tie Wraps)

Because with a bit of push they move apart a little and the back of the board threaten to short with only a 3mm disparity. At a data center they were rock solid and i didnt think to pay attention to what was holding them together.

@Finksy if you still read this thread, i hope you're recovering.

i got all the pieces except for the "Steel sideplate and hardware for mounting fans".  Any other place to buy this?

I think he had that locally custom built by a metal worker. Maybe if you can get the/some plans you could have that done yourself.

unusable without a sideplate.  The reason is the cables are so heavy it drags the top of the breakout board down (like a pivot).  I contacted sloopy on the forums about how to get these but he never answered me.  sloopy is the machinist who made them for Finksy.

Now. Before telling this is bs, I've been using DPS-es with cables soldered to mating connector which is tied to PSU with zip ties for years.
My oldest one is 3 years old. Zip ties do work.. Tho they do become fragile if temperature is too hot. And ofc use zip ties to only lock something in place - this something need not to put it's whole weight on the zip ties.
