power-supply

I will be doing a server installation at the Palo Alto Equinix Data Center soon and I'm coming in from overseas so I wondering if any of you can help me out regarding power supply can power cable issues.

My server power supply is

INPUT 100-240V AC ~50/60Hz MAX AC CURRENT 10A-5A

Do I need a DC power supply?

and the power cable plug head I'm currently using is BS 1363 plug head. What kind of head do I need?
