Notes:
1.
Seven (7) and eight (8) module configurations are not supported.
2.
Thermal dissipation for partial rack configurations are typical values and are provided
for reference purposes only. To support concurrent capacity upgrades, the client’s site
must provide cooling arrangements to support a full rack configuration.
Air circulation
v
Cold air is provided from the front of the rack.
v
Hot air is exhausted from the back of the rack.
Airflow
Airflow requirements are shown in Table 8.
