Fans
The N3200-ON Series switch comes from the factory with two pluggable AC or DC PSUs and three pluggable fan modules. The airflow is
from the I/O panel to the PSU.
All fans and PSUs in a configuration must be in the same airflow direction.
Environmental factors can decrease the amount of time that is required between fan replacements. Check the environmental factors
regularly. An increase in temperature and/or particulate matter in the air might affect performance—for example, new equipment
installation.
