Abstract
This document outlines recommended practices for facility planning and preparation for the HP
Modular Cooling System (HP MCS) as used with the HP 10000 G2 Series Rack Model 10642 G2.
HP MCS Product overview
The HP MCS (Figure 1) cools the warm air that is generated by equipment installed in a 10642 G2
rack. The MCS unit is designed for high-density server and blade deployments. The horizontal air flow
of the MCS unit distributes cooled air uniformly throughout the complete height of the enclosure (i.e.,
all devices receive adequate and evenly distributed cool air regardless of their mounting position
within the enclosure).
