Vertiv Geist SwitchAir SA1-01002L sistema passivo di flusso d'aria per rack, ingresso aria posteriore, 1U, nero

In a dense data center, a network switch with side-to-rear airflow exhausts hot air directly into the cold aisle, undermining cooling efficiency. The Vertiv Geist SwitchAir SA1-01002L tackles this problem by capturing exhaust air and redirecting it to the hot aisle, maintaining proper air separation without consuming any power.

Key specifications

• Product type: Passive rack airflow system
• Rack unit size: 1U
• Rack width compatibility: 19 inches
• Airflow direction: Rear air intake
• Cooling method: Passive (no power required)
• Material: Steel
• Colour: Black
• Mounting type: Rack-mountable
• Compatibility: Designed for side-to-rear airflow network switches (e.g., Cisco Nexus, Arista, Juniper)
• Sealing mechanism: Integrated brush strips or foam seals
• Certifications: RoHS compliant

Why choose it

This system prevents hot exhaust air from recirculating into the cold aisle, ensuring that cool air reaches equipment intakes. By containing exhaust air, it improves cooling efficiency, reduces hot spots, and can lower data center energy costs. The tool-less installation saves time, and the durable steel construction ensures long-term reliability. It also helps extend the lifespan of networking equipment by maintaining proper operating temperatures.

Ideal use cases

• Data centers with hot aisle/cold aisle containment
• Server rooms with side-to-rear airflow switches
• Network closets where cooling is a challenge
• Facilities aiming to reduce cooling energy consumption

Good to know

The SwitchAir SA1-01002L is a passive solution that requires no power, making it a reliable and energy-efficient choice for airflow management. Its 1U form factor fits standard 19-inch racks, and the integrated sealing mechanism ensures effective air containment. RoHS compliance guarantees environmental safety.
