Two variants of AC power supplies are available, each with a different airflow:
•
Back-to-front airflow, indicated by AFI label
•
Front-to-back airflow, indicated by AFO label
Each power supply has a label AFI or AFO and an arrow on the handle that depicts the
direction of airflow (see Figure 25 on page 42).
Table 20 on page 42 shows the AC power supply model numbers and the direction of
airflow in them.
