Air should flow through the system from front to back, as indicated by the arrows in the following
figure.

Figure 21. Cooling Fan Configuration
The Intel
®
Entry Server Chassis SC5299-E is engineered to provide sufficient cooling for all
internal components of the server. The cooling subsystem is dependent upon proper airflow.
The designated cooling vents on both the front and back of the chassis must be left open and
must not be blocked by improperly installed devices. All internal cables must be routed in a
manner that does not impede airflow, and ducting provided for CPU cooling must be installed.
Active heatsinks for CPUs incorporate a fan to provide cooling. This thermal solution is included
with some boxed Intel
®
Xeon™ processors. The Intel
®
Entry Server Chassis SC5299-E is
engineered to work with processors that have an active heatsink solution. Proper installation of
the processor cooling solution is required for circulating air toward the rear of the chassis
(toward I/O connectors).
