Cooling Components

The Acme Packet 1100 must remain well ventilated for reliable and continuous operation. The cooling features of the chassis include a solitary fan with vent holes on two sides of the chassis designed to draw cool air through one side and vented out of the opposite side.

Intake Fans

A single intake fan provides cooling air for the Acme Packet 1100. The fan — located on the left side of the chassis — blows cool air over electronic components from the left side of the chassis and vents heated exhaust air through the right side of the chassis as illustrated below.
