AIR FLOW MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND ASSEMBLY

摘要

An air flow management assembly for use with a component of an optical fibre network is disclosed. The component has a face with an exhaust vent through which air from within the component is exhausted. The assembly includes an air deflection panel having a support structure that includes mounts for mounting the air deflection panel on the component. The assembly also includes one or more vanes that are supported by the support structure such that the vanes are spaced from the face, and are each disposed at least partially transversely across the exhaust vent. The vanes are inclined relative to the face, such that air exhausted through the exhaust vent is deflected by the vanes to flow at least partially vertically upward.
