MaxAir^TM Vent Panels
Combining EMI innovation and cost efficiency
Laird Technologies new patented MaxAir™ vent panel product line
provides an innovative cost effective approach for providing
increased airflow and EMI protection for telecommunications
hardware equipment such as fans and server racks.
This nickel copper plated polycarbonate honeycomb material
provides a rigid medium eliminating the need for costly frame
designs. This frameless design allows greater airflow through the
entire honeycomb surface and ease of installation through its
press-to-fit assembly. The MaxAir vent panel provides greater
durability and flexibility than traditional aluminum vent panels.
Varying densities of material are available to meet specific levels of
rigidity requirements. The honeycomb cell size can be 0.125”
(3.18mm) or 0.250” (6.35mm) in standard thicknesses of 0.250”
(6.35mm) and 0.500” (12.70mm).
