Backplane EEPROM MAC Address: 000c.dbdf.6400
This output shows firmware Revision A (Rev A) for NIBI-16-FAN-EXH-A fan modules. Rev A indicates that the Brocade MLX-16
contains the required rear fan modules to support NI-MLX-10Gx8 and NI-MLX-1Gx48-T-A modules. The RPM value thresholds
(LOW/MED/MED-HI/HI) are also displayed for rear fan modules.
NOTE
If the Brocade MLX-16 does not contain NIBI-16-FAN-EXH-A modules, the show chassis command output will not list Rev A
for rear fan modules.
