Understanding the Cooling System
Purpose Inspect the router cooling system to ensure that air is flowing through the router to
cool the components installed in the router chassis. If the router temperature
exceeds the critical level, the router automatically shuts down.
What Is the Cooling
System
The cooling system includes the fans and impellers that provide cooling in the
router chassis to keep the components operating at an acceptable temperature.
Table 68 describes the cooling system components for each routing platform.
