connections and provide adequate air flow.

Air Flow Requirements
The chassis must be installed in a location that permits good air flow through the chassis. As you
face the front of the chassis, the fans cool the internal components by drawing cool air through the
left side and expelling the warmed air out the right side.
Air flow is provided by six fans, each delivering 55 cubic feet per minute (cfm). All fans must be
operational to supply adequate air flow. With this cooling arrangement, it is important not to block
the air flow through the chassis sides. The maximum temperature for air entering the chassis is 122
deg. F (50 deg. C). Failure to implement these recommendations may result in overheating.
Note
IMPORTANT! To maintain proper chassis cooling, EMI shielding, ESD protection, to prevent equipment
damage and to satisfy safety requirements, all empty slots must have a blank filler panel installed..
