Component Redundancy
7210 SAS-Series component redundancy is critical to reduce MTTR for the system and primarily 
consists of the following features:
• Redundant power supply — A power module can be removed without impact on traffic.
• Fan module — The fan module contains three fans. Failure of one or more fans does not 
impact traffic.
• Hot swap —  The power supply and fan module supports hot swapping.
Temperature Threshold Alarm and Fan Speed for 7210 SAS-M and 7210 SAS-X 
In the 7210 SAS M and X devices, if the chassis temperature crosses a threshold of 58 degree 
centigrade, the system raises an software alarm for over-termperature. When The temperature 
reduces below 58 degree centigrade, the over-temperature alarm is cleared by the system. The 
threshold temperature is not user configurable. 
The Fan operates at two speeds- half speed and full speed. When the temperature of the chassis 
increases above 42 degree centigrade the fan speed changes to full speed and when the 
temperature decreases to 37 degree centigrade, the fan speed changes to half speed. These 
thresholds are not user configurable. 
Temperature Threshold Alarm and Fan Speed for 7210 SAS-M ETR variant 
In the 7210 SAS-M ETR devices,if the chassis temperature crosses a threshold of 68 degree 
centigrade , the system raises an software alarm for over-termperature. When the temperature 
reduces below 68 degree centigrade, the over-temperature alarm is cleared by the system. The  
threshold temperature is not user configurable. 
The fan operates at three speeds - low-speed, half-speed and full-speed. When the temperature of 
the chassis increases above 42 degree centigrade the fan speed changes to full speed and when the 
temperature decreases to 37 degree centigrade the fan speed changes to half speed. When the 
temperature falls below 8 degree centigrade the fan speed reduces to low-speed and it remains at 
this speed until the temperature increases beyond 37 degree centigrade. These thresholds are not 
user configurable.
