cards, BIP, and cooling units, the total power dissipation for a fully
provisioned frame (two shelves) is up to 6000 W. The dissipation for one shelf
is calculated as
16 slots at 150 W each + 2 fabric cards at 75 W each + 2 cooling units + BIP
= 2700 W for a frame housing one shelf (one Passport 15000 or 20000)
The exact power dissipation of an individual Passport 15000 or 20000 shelf
will vary, depending on the number of function processors installed in the
shelf. To calculate a Passport 15000's total power dissipation, add the total
watts for each individual part (values for each part are shown in the table
"Power budget for a Passport 15000 or 20000 shelf assembly (fully
provisioned)" (page 52). To determine the power dissipation for a
Passport 15000 frame, add the totals for each shelf.

Note: These are maximum design values. Actual card dissipation will be
somewhat less depending on implementation.
The heat dissipation of a single Passport 15000 or 20000 shelf is 2580 W/m2,
and with two shelves is 5160 W/m2. These are maximum ratings. Typical
ratings are less.
