Standard Features

HP e-Class Blade PC Enclosure (sold separately)

Rack Capability	Mounts in HP 10000 and 9000 series, HP System-E, as well as third-party, and Telco racks. Rack
	mounting hardware for HP and third-party racks ships standard with each blade enclosure. Telco rack-
	mounting hardware is a separately available option kit.
Rack Airflow	The increasing power of new high-performance processor technology requires increased cooling
Requirements	efficiency for rack-mounted blade PCs. The HP 10000 Series Racks provide enhanced airflow for
	maximum cooling, allowing these racks to be fully loaded with blade PCs using the latest processors.
	CAUTION: If a third-party rack is used, observe the following additional requirements to ensure
	adequate airflow and to prevent damage to the equipment:
	Front and rear doors: If your 42U rack includes closing front and rear doors, you must allow
	5,350 square cm (830 square inches) of hole evenly distributed from top to bottom to permit
	adequate airflow (equivalent to the required 64 percent open area for ventilation).
	Side: The clearance between the installed rack component and the side panels of the rack must be
	a minimum of 7 cm (2.75 inches).
	CAUTION: Always use blanking panels to fill all remaining empty front panel U-spaces in the rack. This
	arrangement ensures proper airflow. Using a rack without blanking panels results in improper cooling
	that can lead to thermal damage.
	NOTE: Please consult the Setup & Installation Guide for the blade PC for additional details.
