A single-chassis clustered network system ( ) having internal connectors ( ) that eliminate the need for wiring out the back of the chassis. Each main board ( ) has a network interface card ( ), an internal connector ( ), an external connector ( ), and an autosense circuit ( ). The autosense circuit ( ) detects when the internal connectors ( ) are being used, and disables the external connectors ( ), or vice versa.

Internally connected network interface cards for clustered processing

A system and method for using one or more anemometers to detect and regulate unfavorable conditions inside a computer system. The anemometer or anemometers, along with other sensing devices are electronically connected to system management software which alerts the system administrator when the measurements collected from the anemometer and other sensing devices indicate that an unfavorable condition, such as overheating, is affecting one or more components inside the computer system. The apparatus and method thus allows the system administrator to quickly and accurately identify unfavorable conditions inside the computer system in a timely manner.
