OOLING
The Chassis holds up to two power supplies and twelve media
converters, so it needs to have reliable form of cooling. This
Chassis has three fans located at the rear of the Chassis, and
draws air into the Chassis. Each fan is connected to the Status
Monitoring Panel on the front of the Chassis. Even with only one
fan working, the Chassis is capable of operating under normal
operating temperatures. For the purpose of cleaning, the Fan
panel assembly can be removed for periodic maintenance. Switch
both power supplies off, and remove the six securing screws.
Disconnect the three power cables supplying DC to the fans. The
fans can then be cleaned with a dry cloth. Replace the fan panel
by reversing the above procedure.
