4.3 System Fans
Six (6) 60 x 38 mm system fans and embedded fans for each installed power supply module provide the
primary airflow for the system.
The system is designed for fan redundancy when configured with two power supply modules, all system fan
rotors are operational, and ambient air remains at or below ASHRAE class 2 limits. Should a single system fan
fail, platform management will adjust air flow of the remaining system fans and manage other platform
features to maintain system thermals. Fan redundancy is lost if more than one system fan is in a failed state.
The server board is capable of supporting up to a total of six system fans. On the server board, each system
fan includes a pair of fan connectors, a 1x10 pin connector to support a dual rotor cabled fan typically used
in 1U system configurations, and a 2x3 pin connector to support a single rotor hot swap fan assembly
typically used in 2U system configurations. Concurrent use of both fan connector types for any given system
fan pair is not supported.
