The SwitchAir is a passive airflow management device with channels providing 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.
Specification

Reduces the likelihood of premature equipment failure due to high intake temperatures.
Improves equipment efficiency by providing network equipment with the same cold aisle air temperature as other devices in the rack.
Decreases wraparound hot airflow from the hot aisle to the cold aisle due to missing blanking panels.
