Dell MX7000 Rear Cover Heatsink | 6C27R

The Dell MX7000 Rear Slot Cover (part number 6C27R) is a blank filler module designed for the PowerEdge MX7000 modular chassis. It occupies unused fabric I/O module slots in the rear of the chassis, specifically in Fabric A and B positions. By filling these vacant slots, the cover maintains proper airflow within the enclosure, ensuring efficient cooling and preventing hotspots that could affect system performance.​

In addition to thermal management, the 6C27R slot cover provides physical protection for the internal components of the MX7000 chassis. It safeguards the internal connectors and circuitry from dust, debris, and potential damage during maintenance or operation. Utilizing these covers in unpopulated slots is essential for maintaining the structural integrity and reliability of the modular system, especially in high-density data center environments.
