SwitchAir passive airflow device
The Vertiv SA1-01002 is a passive 1U airflow management module designed for network switches with rear air intake on the non-port side. It creates a dedicated channel that guides cold aisle air directly to the switch intake using the device's own onboard fans. This suits data centre operators who need to maintain consistent intake temperatures without adding active cooling components.
Adjustment range 7.63 to 11.63 inches
The module telescopes from 7.63 inches to 11.63 inches, or 193.8 millimetres to 295.4 millimetres, to match varying cabinet depths. It fits standard 1U rack spaces and bridges the gap between the front rails and rear-mounted switch intakes. The range covers common rack configurations but will not reach deeper cabinets or shorter mounting positions outside the stated limits.
Passive thermal management
Because the unit has no fans or moving parts, it adds no acoustic noise or power draw to the rack. It relies entirely on the switch's internal fans to pull cool air through the channel. The design also blocks hot exhaust air from recirculating into the cold aisle, reducing the risk of overheating and premature equipment failure without increasing operational load.

| Features | The Vertiv Geist SwitchAir- SA1-01002 is a passive 1U airflow management device for switches with rear air intake (non-port side). Channels provide a dedicated path for cold aisle air to flow to the intake of the switch using the on-board fans of the network devices to pull cool air from the front of the cabinet. The SwitchAir also creates a barrier preventing recirculation of hot exhaust air from the hot aisle from entering switch intakes. Reduces the chance of network switches overheating by directing cool air to device intakes. Reduces the likelihood of premature equipment failure |

Questions about this item
Will the SwitchAir SA1-01002 fit my existing rack rails if they are set between 7.63 and 11.63 inches deep?
Yes, the adjustment range of 7.63" to 11.63" (193.8mm to 295.4mm) lets it mount on most standard rack rails within that depth.
How can I confirm the SwitchAir SA1-01002 is directing cold air correctly after installation?
Verify that front-to-rear airflow reaches the switch intake and that hot exhaust no longer wraps around into the cold aisle.
Does the SA1-01002 package include mounting screws or do I need to supply them separately?
The module ships as a complete 1U passive unit; any rack screws or cage nuts required for your specific cabinet are not included.
