Power supply questions. - 10.12.2009, 11:04 PM

The other day, I picked up a Dell poweredge 2500 server from my neighbor. When looking through this behemoth(90 lbs ) i found it has an interesting power scheme... It has what looks like a power supply/distribution board in the back/side. looks like it needs alot of power, 2 plugs are needed to plug the thing in! but then connected to that are 3 400watt power supplies. huh??

my question is for anybody who knows anything about servers. what converts the ac to dc? the part that gets plugged in to the wall? or the hotswappable power supplies? and is it worth making it into a power supply?
here are pics.

3 of these:
