Yes, in most cases this would work. Unfortunately, this won't work as there
are no 4 pin outputs from the Dell power supply to attach the splitter.
Dell rack mount servers don't use 4pin power at all. The hard disks are
hot swap scsi so they don't use 4 pin power. Also the power supplies are
hot swap so the connection from the power supply to the motherboard is
hardwired. I see that the 1750 is mentioned on the Wiki but haven't seen
if there is some way that I am missing to get this to work with digium
cards.
Just curious as Dell rack mount servers are fairly commonplace and would be surprised if I am the first one to hit this problem.
Old TDM400P cards did not have a power connector. The new ones do. The power to the card is required on any card that has a power connector. The modern TDM400P cards are the only Digium cards that require external power (since they are the only cards that support analog FXS ports and those ports require more power than many motherboards can provide via the PCI bus)
