Cooling Specifications
High performance impeller provides cooling air to modules. Unique air
distribution system (patent applied) and positively-pressurized plenum
provide quiet operation and uniform airflow from slot to slot and from front
to rear of modules. Outstanding back pressure performance insures airflow
through dense modules. Separate power supply cooling fan(s) provides an
independent air path for reliable cooling of power supply.
