Back view and features

The back of the M1000e enclosure contains system management, cooling, power, and I/O
components. At the top of the enclosure are slots for two CMC 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.
