BlackDiamond 6816 Fan Trays

The BlackDiamond 6816 fan trays (no. 53013):
• Contain nine individual fans
• Are preinstalled at the factory
• Are accessed from the front of the chassis
• Are hot-swappable which means you can remove and replace a fan tray without powering down the
system
CAUTION
Do not cover or obstruct the fan ventilation holes at the side of the unit. Doing so can result in
overheating and possible damage to the BlackDiamond 6816 switch. Thermal sensors will shut down
the BlackDiamond 6816 switch if the internal temperature exceeds 60 degrees Celsius.
ExtremeWare monitors the fan trays in the BlackDiamond 6816 switch for failure and overheat
conditions. All fan failures and over temperature events cause the switch to send alerts to the network
management station or to the switch log. See the ExtremeWare Software User Guide for more information
on switch monitoring.
