ABSTRACT:
A network device includes an airflow baffle. The baffle redirects cooling air toward a transceiver cage to increase a rate of heat transfer from electronic devices on the transceiver. The baffle is bi-directional, so that cooling air is redirected regardless of whether it flows in a front-to-back or back-to-front direction.
