1U rear rack cooling shelf for network switches
The Liebert SwitchAir SA101002L mounts in a single rack unit at the rear of a cabinet. It directs cool intake air toward side-breathing network switches that would otherwise pull warm exhaust from neighbouring equipment. The shelf depth adjusts continuously between 10.63 and 14.63 inches to fit varying rail positions. Installers working with mixed switch depths can standardise on one bracket.
Passive airflow management with no added power draw
The unit contains no fans, motors or electrical connections, so it adds zero watts to the rack’s power budget and produces no audible noise. Cooling performance depends entirely on the front-to-rear pressure differential created by the room or aisle containment system. Racks lacking sufficient static pressure will not see improved inlet temperatures. Buyers needing active assist or temperature monitoring must look elsewhere.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 1U rear rack mount and adjust it between 10.63 and 14.63 inches?
Mount the unit in a standard 1U rear rack space, then slide the adjustable rails until the depth measures between 10.63 and 14.63 inches; the step often missed is tightening both rail locks evenly so the chassis cannot shift under vibration.
What maintenance will the SA101002L need over time?
Periodically vacuum the intake mesh and exhaust vents to prevent dust build-up, verify that the mounting screws remain snug after thermal cycles, and replace the unit if airflow drops below the switch manufacturer's minimum requirement.
