Fresh air plenums are at both top and bottom of the chassis. The bottom fresh air plenum provides
non‐preheated air to the M1000e power supplies. The top fresh air plenum provides non‐preheated
air to the CMC, iKVM and I/O modules.

The rear of the M1000e Enclosure contains system management, cooling, power and I/O components.
At the top of the enclosure are slots for two Chassis Management Cards and one integrated KVM
switch. The enclosure ships by default with a single CMC, with the option of adding a second CMC to
provide a fully redundant, active‐standby fault-tolerant solution for management access and control.
Interleaved in the center of the chassis are fans and I/O modules. This arrangement optimizes the
balance of airflow through the system, allowing lower pressure build-up in the system and resulting
in lower airflow requirements for the fans. For more information, see
Hardware Owner's Manual.
