The Vertiv Geist SwitchAir Airflow Cooling System is an essential solution designed to enhance the performance of your network equipment. In data centers, routers, and load balancers are often positioned at the back of racks, which can obstruct the flow of essential cool air. The SwitchAir system tackles this challenge by efficiently channeling cold air from the front of the rack directly to the air intakes of your network switches. This strategic airflow management helps prevent overheating, extending the lifespan of your critical devices and optimizing their performance.
One of the key features of the SwitchAir system is its ability to reduce the risk of equipment failure due to high intake temperatures, enhancing reliability across your network infrastructure. Over time, this proactive cooling method minimizes the chances of network switches and other equipment suffering from overheating issues. As a result, your operations can run smoothly, without the constant worry of unexpected equipment downtime.
Additionally, the SwitchAir system improves overall equipment efficiency by ensuring that all network devices receive a uniform cold airflow, matching the cold aisle temperature found among other devices in the rack. This uniformity not only fosters optimal performance but also encourages better energy usage, helping you save on cooling costs.
Moreover, the SwitchAir system efficiently mitigates hot airflow that may inadvertently wrap around from the hot aisle to the cold aisle, especially in setups lacking adequate blanking panels. By addressing these airflow concerns, the SwitchAir promotes a more controlled environment for your vital network components.
Reduces the risk of overheating by directing cool air to network device intakes.
Minimizes premature equipment failure caused by excessive intake temperatures.
