Vertiv E457014 Vertical Airflow Baffle Kit for 45U 700W | Rack Cooling

Keep conditioned air moving through the equipment path, not around it. The Vertiv E457014 vertical airflow baffle with brush kit is built for 45U, 700W rack configurations where thermal control depends on disciplined airflow management. By closing off vertical openings and limiting bypass air, it helps maintain a more predictable cooling profile across populated enclosures. This accessory is a practical fit for infrastructure teams that need to protect thermal margins without redesigning the rack. The brush interface helps reduce open-channel leakage while preserving cable pass-through flexibility, making it well suited to environments with mixed-density deployments and frequent service access. In high-value racks, small airflow losses can translate into hotter components, louder cooling, and less headroom for growth. Use it when you want to improve cooling efficiency, support stable operating temperatures, and make better use of existing rack-level airflow design. For teams managing premium Vertiv enclosures, this baffle kit adds a targeted layer of control that supports uptime without adding complexity.
