Thermal Threshold Definitions

Three thermal threshold definitions are measured by the systems' ASICs. They impact the overall switch system operational state as follows:

ASIC Temperature

Status

System Behavior

Up to 99°C

Normal

Standard operating conditions

100°C – 109°C

High temperature warning

The ASIC has reached a high operating temperature, performance may degrade

110°C – 119°C

ASIC critical temperature exceeded

Firmware driven ASIC shutdown

120°C and above

Critical over-temperature

Hardware driven ASIC shutdown
