Filler
Panels
To maintain proper airflow through the chassis, all empty slots must be shielded by a filler panel.
Specific panels are designed for use with front and rear of the VMG-14+, as described in this section.
Imagine Communications provides filler panels for use at the front and rear cage slots of the VMG
systems.
Caution:
All filler panels must be installed to maintain proper airflow and prevent air from escaping
out of the front of an open slot. Filler panels should include an airflow baffle that extends to
the backplane.
