Proper Ventilation
The X6 will get warm during operation so ventilation holes were placed on the top of the
chassis. These ventilation holes will not be effective if another piece of rack equipment is
placed directly above the X6 blocking the vent holes. It is recommended that you leave a
1U clearance on the top of the X6. If desired, a vented rack panel can installed to cover
blank space in the 19” rack.

For better cooling a 1U quiet cooling fan can be installed above the X6. Reducing heat will
definitely extend the life of the product.
We recommend the: AC Infinity, Model CLOUDPLATE T1-Quiet Rack Cooling Fan System 1U

Note:
For ventilation to be effective the fan motors must on the front of the rack chassis to
exhaust air. Ventilation fans that have fan motors on the top of the chassis will not work.
