3.3.4 Electrical Characteristics
This subsection provides the power requirements for the MegaRAID
8480 RAID controller. Tabl e 3.6 lists the maximum power requirements.
3.3.5 Operating and Non-operating Conditions
For the MegaRAID 8480 RAID controller, the operating (thermal and
atmospheric) conditions are:
• Relative humidity range is 5% to 90% noncondensing
• Airflow must be at least 200 linear feet per minute (LFPM) to avoid
operating the Intel IOP333 processor above the maximum
ambient temperature
The parameters for the non-operating (such as storage and transit)
environment for the 8480 are:
• Temperature range: −30 °C to +80 °C without battery backup unit
• Temperature range: 0 °C to +45 °C with LSIiTBBU02 battery backup
3.3.6 Safety Characteristics
The MegaRAID 8480 RAID controller meets or exceeds the requirements
of UL flammability rating 94 V0. Each bare board is also marked with the
supplier name or trademark, type, and UL flammability rating. The board
is installed in a PCI Express bus slot, so all voltages are lower than the
SELV 42.4 V limit.
