BlackDiamond Family Chassis Spacing Requirements
Extreme Networks recommends placing no more than three chassis next to each other due to chassis-to-
chassis heating. The following are some general recommendations for installing your BlackDiamond
10808 switch, BlackDiamond 8800 series of switches, or your BlackDiamond 12804 switch:
●
A minimum of one empty 19-inch rack between each set of three adjacent BlackDiamond switches.
or
●
Place patch panels between each set of three adjacent BlackDiamond switches. A patch panel does
not require any power and does not generate any heat.
NOTE
Up to five adjacent switches will continue to function without safety concerns. However, product lifetime may
degrade with continued exposure to high temperatures in close proximity and long term reliability may be
compromised.
Summit Family of Switches Spacing Requirements
Be sure that cables and other equipment do not block the air intake or outflow on an Extreme Networks
Summit family switch. It is best to have at least 3 inches (8 cm) of clear space in front of the air intake
and outflow vents on the sides of the switch; airflow moves from side to side. For proper airflow
through a Summit family switch, leave clear space on the left and right sides of the switch.
Depending on other conditions in the equipment room, it may be possible to install the switches closer
to each other; consult your Extreme Networks Customer Support representative for guidance.
BlackDiamond Family Chassis Airflow Requirements
To ensure proper airflow through a BlackDiamond switch, refer to the following recommendations
when you are installing your switch:
●
BlackDiamond 10808 switches require a minimum of 3 inches (8 cm) around both the front and rear
of the chassis from any cabinet wall or other obstruction for proper airflow.
●
BlackDiamond 8800 and 12804 switches require a minimum of 1.5 inches (4 cm) around both the left
and right sides of the chassis from any cabinet wall or other obstruction for proper airflow.
●
Air temperature measured approximately 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the fan inlet should be less than
104 °F (40 °C).
The airflow of the BlackDiamond 10808 switch, BlackDiamond 8800 series of switches, and
BlackDiamond 12804 switch moves through the power supplies and is independent of the airflow
through the modules as shown in
Figure 1
and
Figure 2
