Benefiting from smart cooling fan speed control, the T620 can keep both high performance and low acoustics across a wide range of ambient temperatures from 10°C to 35°C (50°F to 95°F) and to extended ambient temperature ranges (see Table 30). A typically configured T620 is quiet enough for an office environment, and a minimally configured T620 is quiet enough for a library. The thermal design of the PowerEdge T620 reflects the following:  Multiple sensors are monitored for thermal feedback control: The PowerEdge T620 dynamically controls system cooling fan speed based on responses from all component temperature sensors, including processors, hard disk drives, DIMMs, storage cards, and the inlet ambient temperature. The thermal control also detects and responds to hardware configuration. The thermal
