Abstract
A system for providing cooling to electronic modules received within a chassis. The chassis includes a cooling apparatus having ducting and a plurality of fans coupled to the ducting. The ducting includes air passageways that extend through the ducting and are configured to direct air blown into the passageways by the fans toward the modules installed in the chassis. The modules include heat sinks and the air passageways direct the air toward the fins to provide cooling to the heat sinks. The chassis includes switches coupled to the fans and configured to selectively activate the individual fans when the electronic modules are installed in the chassis.
