Server Platform Features
System Cooling
All system components except the power supply cage are cooled by a set of fans mounted
near the middle of the chassis and behind the hard drive bays. The TIGI2U system comes
in a non-redundant, four-fan configuration that consists of two 80mm x 38mm fans and two
40mm x 28mm fans.
Air flows in through the front bezel over the peripheral bay and the hard drive bays,
passes through the fans and over the baseboard, and exhausts through the rear of the
chassis. Each fan provides tachometer signal output to the server baseboard to indicate a
fan failure.
The cooling subsystem contains a fan array consisting of two 80 x 38 mm fans and two 40
x 28 mm fans to cool the server board and other components. A fan failure is indicated by
one of the fault LEDs located on the front panel.
