Chassis Installation Procedure; Rack Rail Parts Inventory - IBM 3453 Series Customer Install Manual

Chassis Installation Procedure

Pay Attention!
All components must have the same airflow direction when installed in the rack.
Cold air enters at the front of the rack and exits at the rear of the rack. A mismatch in
the air flow direction will affect the heat dissipation. Switches must plan for power
supply-to-connector airflow. i.e. switch network connections must be facing the rear of
the rack.
