I remember that there was an Ascend DSLAM built on the same chassis and it =
was collocated by someone into Ameritech central offices. Ameritech shut t=
hem all down saying that there was no way, no how that the device could be =
NEBS compliant. I don't know how that fight ever turned out, they were not=
ours. Side to side airflow is really bad news. Even with vertical you co=
uld at least mount some kind of baffles and lose a few Us. With side to sid=
e it is really hard to find a way to redirect air with the flanges in the w=
ay.
