Abstract
An embedded computer chassis may include a midplane having a first side and second side substantially opposite each other, where the midplane is suitably adapted to receive at least one computer card in each of the first side and the second side. Embedded computer chassis may further include a cooling region suitably adapted to cool the at least one computer card, where at least a portion of the cooling region is suitably adapted to receive a first fan tray and a second fan tray, where the first fan tray is suitably adapted to couple to the first side of the midplane, and where the second fan tray is suitably adapted to couple to the second side of the midplane. The first fan tray and the second fan tray are substantially redundant for removing the heat generated by the at least one computer card.
