ABSTRACT:
A computer system includes a chassis with a fan installed therein, a cover plate adapted to be attached to the chassis, and a noise absorber attached to the cover plate. The fan is capable of generating an amount of air flow for cooling at least a component in the chassis. The noise absorber includes a plurality of protrusions facing the fan and capable of damping the air flow that impacts the cover plate and decreasing an acoustic noise level of the computer system.
