ABSTRACT:
An exemplary embodiment of the present invention provides a computer system. The system includes an enclosure configured to house a plurality of electronic devices. The system also includes a fan coupled to the enclosure and configured to provide a flow of cooling air through the enclosure to cool the electronic devices. The system also includes a first airflow path configured to allow the cooling air to exit the enclosure and attenuate noise generated in the enclosure. The system also includes an auxiliary outlet configured to provide a second airflow path if the first airflow path is obstructed.
