Table 11: Fan Module Status LEDs
Color State Descripon
Green On steadily Fan is funconing normally.
Red On steadily Equipment is faulty and
malfunconing.
Unlit O Fan module input power failed.
Under normal operang condions, the fan modules operate at a moderate speed. Temperature sensors
in the chassis monitor the temperature within the chassis.
The system raises an alarm if a fan module fails or if the ambient temperature inside the chassis rises
above the acceptable range. If the temperature inside the chassis rises above the threshold temperature,
the system shuts down automacally.
Airow
The switch has a front-to-back (airow out or AFO) cooling system. The switch pulls air through the
front of the chassis toward the fan modules, which exhaust the air out of the switch. See Figure 21 on
page 36.
