Claim Text:
1. A rack frame having a plurality of support rails configured to support a plurality of computer servers in a stacked, parallel relationship; a first DC-to-DC conversion circuit including a DC-to-DC converter including a transformer having a primary winding and a secondary winding, first and second input terminals coupled to the primary winding, and first and second output terminals coupled to the secondary winding, the first DC-to-DC converter reducing a voltage applied between the input terminals by at least a factor of 6 relative to the voltage applied to the output terminals by the DC-to-DC converter; and a first power bus attached to the rack frame perpendicular to the support rails and mechanically supporting the first DC-to-DC conversion circuit, the power bus including first and second spaced, parallel bus bars connectable to the servers supported by the support rails to power the respective servers with DC power at substantially the voltage applied to the output terminals by the first DC-to-DC converter, the first output terminals of the circuit being electrically coupled to the first bus bar, and the second output terminals being electrically coupled to the second bus bar.
