Server Board S3420GP Design Specifications
The operation of the server board at conditions beyond those shown in the following table may
cause permanent damage to the system. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for
extended periods may affect system reliability.

Disclaimer Note: Intel Corporation server boards contain a number of high-density VLSI and
power delivery components that need adequate airflow to cool. Intel ensures through its own
chassis development and testing that when Intel server building blocks are used together, the
fully integrated system will meet the intended thermal requirements of these components. It is
the responsibility of the system integrator who chooses not to use Intel developed server
building blocks to consult vendor datasheets and operating parameters to determine the amount
of airflow required for their specific application and environmental conditions. Intel Corporation
cannot be held responsible, if components fail or the server board does not operate correctly
when used outside any of their published operating or non-operating limits.
9.2 Board-level Calculated MTBF
This section provides results of MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) testing done by a third
party testing facility. MTBF is a standard measure for the reliability and performance of the
board under extreme working conditions. The MTBF was measured at 20000 hours at 35
degrees Celsius.
The following table shows the MTBF for the server boards as configured from the factory;
