1.10.4 Fan Modules

There are four fan modules on the chassis for the leafs. They are located on the spine
side, along the top of the chassis. When a fan module is not functioning the status LED
on the fan will light up.
Each spine has an individual fan module that contains two individual fans. Should a sin-
gle fan fail the Fan Status LED on the spine and the S. Fan LED on the management
module will light, indicating the necessity to replace the fan module. Air flow through
the spines is independent of the air flow through the leafs.
