Abstract
A method for cooling a system having a midplane design in which the midplane includes holes to allow air to flow via the midplane. Cards connected to the midplane have a front face that includes holes to allow the air to flow. The air flows from front to back or back to front to cool the cards connected to the midplane. A multi-slot chassis includes rails to support the cards. The rails form spaces to permit access to sockets associated with the cards to which cables may be connected. Platforms associated with the cards may permit a user to manage cables connected to the cards.
