Abstract
An arrangement of ducted exhaust equipment enclosures includes a row of electronic equipment enclosures and a vertical wall rising from, and extending along, the tops of the electronic equipment enclosures. Each enclosure includes a frame structure formed from a plurality of support posts and cross members, and a plurality of panels, including a top panel, at least partially enclosing the frame structure and defining a single compartment for mounting an electronic component. The top panel and upper portions of the frame structure form a top of the electronic equipment enclosure, the electronic equipment enclosure top having a rectangular opening therein and also an outer perimeter. The rectangular opening has a front bound, a rear bound, and two side bounds, and has a side-to-side width that is at least 75% of a side-to-side width of the electronic equipment enclosure top perimeter. The vertical wall is formed by a row of air duct panels, each extending upward from a respective electronic equipment enclosure top and forming part of an air duct. The side-to-side width of a lower section of each air duct panel is substantially the same as the side-to-side width of the rectangular ope…
