Juniper ACX1000 Hardware Guide

Table 18: Cabinet Requirements and Specifications for the ACX1000 and ACX1100
Router (continued)
GuidelinesCabinet Requirement
When you mount the router in a cabinet, ensure that ventilation
through the cabinet is sufficient to prevent overheating.
•
Ensure an adequate cool air supply to dissipate the thermal
output of the router or routers.
•
Ensure that the cabinet allows the chassis hot exhaust air
to exit the cabinet without recirculating into the router. An
open cabinet (without a top or doors) that employs hot air
exhaust extraction from the top allows the best airflow
through the chassis. If the cabinet contains a top or doors,
perforations in these elements assist with removing the hot
air exhaust.
•
Install the router in the cabinet in a way that maximizes the
open space on the side of the chassis that has the hot air
exhaust. This space maximizes the clearance for critical
airflow.
•
Route and dress all cables to minimize the blockage of
airflow to and from the chassis.
•
Ensure that the spacing of rails and adjacent cabinets allows
for the proper clearance around the router and cabinet.
•
A cabinet larger than the minimum required provides better
airflow and reduces the chance of overheating.
