Installing the 8U Chassis Airflow Diversion or Port-Side Exhaust Kit for
Four-Post Racks (XBR-DCX4S-0121 and XBR-DCX4S-0130)
Use the following instructions to install a modular device in a 19 in. (48.26 cm) Electronic Industries Association (EIA) rack
using the following Brocade rack mount kits:
•
XBR-DCX4S-0121 - Kit for rack rail-to-rail depth of 27 to 31 in. (68.58 to 78.74 cm)
•
XBR-DCX4S-0130 - Kit for rack rail-to-rail depth of 18 to 24 in. (45.72 to 60.96 cm)
These kits have a different function, depending on the device being installed in the rack and the airflow direction provided
by fans and power supplies installed in the device.
For X6-4 Directors, if nonport-side exhaust (NPE) fan and power supply assemblies are installed, air flows through
the side vent and exhausts to the nonport side of the chassis. When nonport-side intake (NPI) fan and power supply
assemblies are installed, air flows from the nonport-side and exhausts through the side vent. This kit is designed to divert
this airflow to or from the port side of the chassis. Therefore, if NPE fan and power supply assemblies are installed, air
flows into port-side air vents and exhausts to the nonport side. If NPI fan and power supply assemblies are installed, air
flows into nonport-side air vents and exhausts through to the port-side.
Observe the following when mounting this device:
•
Installing this rack mount kit with an 8U chassis requires 9U of rack space.
