  • Patent number: 6738262
    Abstract: An apparatus for hindering the collection of dust and particulate matter within unutilized housings or ports of hardware component chassis is provided. A port filler baffle for occupying a port within a chassis includes a panel assembly sized and dimensioned to fit within the port of the chassis. A bracket couples with the panel assembly. An aperture filler couples with the bracket. The aperture filler is disposed to hinder particulate intrusion into the unutilized port of the chassis. When the panel assembly is mounted in the chassis, the aperture filler presses against the unutilized port, substantially blocking access to the inside of the port, thus hindering particulate intrusion and keeping the port clean.
