Temperature Requirements
The fabric interconnect requires an operating temperature of 32 to 104 degrees Fahrenheit (0 to 40 degrees
Celsius). If the fabric interconnect is not operating, the temperature must be between –40 to 158 degrees
Fahrenheit (–40 to 70 degrees Celsius).
Humidity Requirements
Buildings in which the climate is controlled by air-conditioning in the warmer months and by heat during the
colder months usually maintain an acceptable level of humidity for the fabric interconnect equipment. However,
if the fabric interconnect is located in an unusually humid location, use a dehumidifier to maintain the humidity
within an acceptable range.
Altitude Requirements
Altitude rating is based on power supply installed; see critical components list in the system CB report for
altitude rating.
