To maintain proper air circulation through the Catalyst switch
Note
chassis, we recommend that you maintain a minimum 6-inch (15 cm)
separation between a wall and the chassis air intake or a wall and the
chassis air exhaust. You should also allow a minimum separation of
12 inches (30.5 cm) between the hot air exhaust on one chassis and
the air intake on another chassis. Failure to maintain adequate air
space can cause the chassis to overheat and the system to fail. On
Catalyst chassis in which the airflow is from front to back, the
chassis may be placed side-by-side.
