Yes, but this doesn't imply that you have access to those other phases.
It is easy enough to be delivered 208V single phase service in a data
center environment.
Uh. 208v single phase is functionally the same as 240v single phase.
You grab 1 hot, neutral off the ground, and you have a common 110v
circuit. Even if you're 3 phase to your PDU, it's still single phase to
the servers. (specialty gear excluded, but those generally plug direct to
the circuit, not to a PDU).
This makes it very very easy to solve this problem, and I keep a few of
these floating around at all of my datacenters, with big labels saying who
they belong too. (ignoring the fact that for drill charging at least
there's usually house power available, but crash carts need these...)

I also use them to run wall warts, etc, as needed.
