Passive and Active Cooling Cards
Alveo™ cards are available in both acve and passive cooling conguraons, as shown in the
following gures. The passive cooling card is designed to be installed into a data center server,
where controlled air ow provides direct cooling. The acve cooling card is designed to be
installed into a PC environment where the air ow is uncontrolled; consequently, this
conguraon includes a heat sink and fan enclosure cover to provide appropriate cooling.
