Power and thermal measurements

Azure FXT Edge Filer nodes use variable speed fans, so power depends on temperature and load. Maximum fan speeds can be reached at certain combinations of high load and elevated ambient temperatures.

These charts give power consumption and thermal output measurements for commonly used voltage-frequency combinations.
