Assuming the power socket, cable etc. is all live, and when plugged into the server nothing happens whatsoever, I might be inclined to think there may be a problem with either the Motherboard or PSU.

PSU is a far easier thing to test.

I would try a different power supply and see if that improves matters.

Additionally, there are various power supply testers on the market, which may make life easier - I hesitate in recommending them as I am unsure what type of power connectors the Poweredge servers use.

I can't imagine this is a networking issue, so I've moved it to a hardware forum.
