About Requirements for Perforated Cabinets
A perforated cabinet has perforations in its front and rear doors and side walls. In addition to the requirements
listed in the
“ General Requirements for Cabinets and Racks ” section, perforated cabinets must meet the
following requirements:
• The front and rear doors must have at least a 60-percent open area perforation pattern, with at least 15
square inches (96.8 square cm) of open area per rack unit of door height.
• The roof should be perforated with at least a 20-percent open area.
• The cabinet floor should be open or perforated to enhance cooling.
The Cisco R Series rack conforms to these requirements.
About Requirements for Open Racks
In addition to the requirements listed in the “ General Requirements for Cabinets and Racks ” section on page
A-1, if you are mounting the chassis in an open rack (no side panels or doors), ensure that the rack meets the
following requirements:
• The minimum vertical rack space per chassis must be two rack units (RU), equal to 3.47 inches (8.8
cm).
• The horizontal distance between the chassis and any adjacent chassis should be 6 inches (15.2 cm), and
the distance between the chassis air vents and any walls should be 2.5 inches (6.4 cm).
