I've had really good luck with a very large hole underneath the cabinet and a several hundred CFM fan at the top. Telehouse has good underfloor pressure so the larger the hole the better for the cabinet. I haven't had good luck putting vented tiles behind - most of our equipment vents front to rear inside the cabinets. My routers are very happy with the large holes though: card inlet hotpoint exhaust RSP(2) 18C/64F 23C/73F 21C/69F Although after seeing the rats nest of wires in some of the cabinets I've seen over the years it's no wonder there are hotspots - nowhere for the air to go. ;) -Geoff At 08:10 PM 10/6/98 -0400, TTSG wrote: >Also make sure that there is a "vented tile" inback of your cabinets. >Not every one I see there does.
