System Specifications Environmental Requirements Acoustic Noise Specification The acoustic noise specification for the rp8400 server is as follows: • 57.3 db (sound pressure level at bystander position) The above level is appropriate for dedicated computer room environments, not office environments. Care should be taken to understand the acoustic noise specifications relative to operator positions within the computer room or when adding rp8400 servers to computer rooms with existing noise sources. Air Flow rp8400 servers require that the recommended cabinet air intake temperature be between 68ο F and 77ο F (20ο C and 25ο C) at 960 CFM.

Acoustic Noise Specification
The acoustic noise specification for the rp8400 server is as follows:
57.3 db (sound pressure level at bystander position)
The above level is appropriate for dedicated computer room environments, not office environments.
Care should be taken to understand the acoustic noise specifications relative to operator positions within the
computer room or when adding rp8400 servers to computer rooms with existing noise sources.
