Rack 10000 series Cabinets
The increasing power of new high-performance processor technology requires increased cooling
efficiency for rack-mounted servers. The 10000 Series Racks provide enhanced airflow for maximum
cooling, allowing these racks to be fully loaded with servers using the latest processors.
CAUTION:
CAUTION: CAUTION:
CAUTION:
If a third-party rack is used, observe the following additional requirements to ensure
adequate airflow and to prevent damage to the equipment:
Front and rear doors
: If your 42U server rack includes closing front and rear doors, you
must allow 5,350 sq cm (830 square inches) of hole evenly distributed from top to bottom
to permit adequate airflow (equivalent to the required 64 percent open area for ventilation).
Side
: The clearance between the installed rack component and the side panels of the rack
must be a minimum of 7 cm (2.75 inches).
CAUTION:
CAUTION: CAUTION:
CAUTION:
Always use blanking panels to fill all remaining empty front panel U-spaces in the rack. This
arrangement ensures proper airflow. Using a rack without blanking panels results in improper cooling
that can lead to thermal damage.
