SRX3600 Services Gateway Cabinet Airflow Requirements

• Ensure that the cool air supply you provide through the cabinet can adequately dissipate the thermal output of the services gateway.
• Allow at least 3 in. (7.6 cm) of vertical clearance between the top and bottom of the services gateway and other devices in the cabinet.
• Ensure that the cabinet allows the chassis hot exhaust air to exit from the cabinet without recirculating into the services gateway. An open cabinet (without a top or doors) that employs hot air exhaust extraction from the top allows the best airflow through the chassis.
• Ensure that the cabinet provides at least 13 cm (5 in) of clearance on each side of the chassis for cooling airflow.
• If the cabinet contains a top or doors, you must provide perforations in these elements to allow adequate airflow through the cabinet to dissipate the heat generated by all of the devices in the cabinet.
• Route and dress all cables to minimize the blockage of airflow to and from the chassis.
