Abstract: A modular fan chassis air filtering system includes a base that defines a fan device housing that houses a fan device. At least one system chassis coupling feature is included on the base and couples to a system chassis via a modular fan chassis housing defined by the system chassis. An air inlet is defined by the base and allows air to enter the fan device housing in response to operation of the fan device. An air outlet is defined by the base and allows air to exit the fan device housing in response to operation of the fan device. An air filter housing is defined by the base, located between the air inlet and the air outlet, and houses an air filter that filters the air that enters the fan device housing through the air inlet before that air exits the fan device housing through the air outlet.

Abstract: A connector cooling and status indication system includes a connector chassis that defines a connector aperture, an airflow aperture located adjacent the connector aperture, and a status indicator aperture that is located adjacent the connector aperture. A connector subsystem includes a connector that is located immediately adjacent the connector aperture, and a heat dissipation device extends from the connector subsystem and defines at least one heat dissipation device channel that is configured to channel an airflow received via the airflow aperture. A status indicator subsystem includes a light emitting element that is located immediately adjacent the status indicator aperture, and is positioned adjacent the connector subsystem such that no portion of the status indicator subsystem impedes the airflow that is received via the airflow aperture and channeled by the at least one heat dissipation device channel.
