2.3 Environmental, Thermal, and Power
This section contains the environmental, thermal, and power requirements of the
PCIE-7217 card.
2.3.1 Environmental and Thermal Requirements
The following table provides the environmental and thermal requirements for the
PCIE-7217 card.
Operating temperatures refer to the temperature of the incoming air passing across
the card and out of the face plate, not the temperature of the components.
Table 2-1 Environmental and Thermal Requirements
