Chassis Fan Tray

The chassis fan assembly provides cooling air for the supervisor engine and the switching modules. The fan
tray supports side-to-side (right-to-left) airflow. If necessary, you can use airflow baffles or specialized data
center racks to redirect the airflow exhaust to the rear. The following table describes the switch-supported fan
tray models and air flow architecture and requirements.
