During April 2007 an updated IDCe (INUe chassis) was introduced. This IDCe
accepts a new 2RU FAN as well as the original 1RU FANs. The updated IDCe is
form-fit-function compatible with the previous IDCe, and retains its 002 part
number extension.
One 2RU FAN is supplied as standard with the updated IDCe.
