Blank Slot Covers
The AT-CV5PNLx Series blank slot covers are designed to maintain
optimal, trouble-free environmental conditions for the modules used in the
Converteon™ AT-CV5000 chassis. Every unoccupied slot on the chassis
must be covered with a blank slot cover to prevent dust from entering the
chassis and to maintain proper airflow, cooling, and ventilation throughout
the chassis.
There are three AT-CV5PNLx Series blank slot covers:
ˆ AT-CV5PNL1 – For line cards and AT-CV5M01 Management Card
ˆ AT-CV5PNL2 – For power supply modules
ˆ AT-CV5PNL3 – For the rear expansion slot
Figure 7 illustrates the AT-CV5PNLx Series blank slot covers.

Note
Allied Telesis strongly recommends that a blank slot cover be
inserted in any slot that does not contain a functioning line card or
module.
To install a blank slot cover that was removed from the chassis, refer to
“Installing a Blank Slot Cover” on page 90.
