Note 1. The fans for this model can function in Off mode only if a maximum of eight
Ethernet port are operational (only four ports in the range from 1 to 8 but all ports in
the range from 9 to 12) and if no SFP+ ports are operational.
Note 2. The fans for this model can function in Off mode only if a maximum of eight
SFP+ ports are operational.
Example of intelligent fan operation:
If the fans of model M4250-10G2F-PoE+ operate in Off mode and either the temperature
detected by the temperature sensor exceeds 108F (42C) or the PoE budget exceeds
80W, the switch automatically places the fans in Quiet mode or Cool mode so that the
fans operate between 25 and 100 percent speed.
