That is actually exactly what they are. Just female 4mm bullet connectors that are soldered onto the spades. It's a little hard to solder them on, but with a hot enough iron, you can get it. If this doesn't answer your question, let me know what it is that you are confused by.

Thanks but there's 4 on each side which one do the bullets get attached to just want to make right connection.thanks

Each of the 4 on each side are the same polarity. If you look closely, those 4 actually taper in to grab onto 2 different terminals, giving a server it's power. So on each side, I would attach the bullet connectors in the middle of the 4. This will ensure you get the most current by connecting to both of the poles on each side. Hope this makes sense.

I think I'm using 10ga wire on mine. Should before than enough. And if you hit a picture that you don't want to upload, hover over the picture in the manager and click the x. I don't think you have editing permissions yet so if you want it removed, just let me know. Cute little one though.
