IRM-SSD-Blank Overview
The IRM-SSD-Blank is a blanking cover designed for empty solid state drive (SSD) slots on the Cisco Catalyst IR8300 Rugged Series Router. The IR8300 router supports an internal SSD for additional storage capacity. If the SSD slot is not populated, the IRM-SSD-Blank can be installed to protect the empty slot from dust and debris while maintaining proper thermal performance and airflow through the chassis.
The sturdy metal construction of the IRM-SSD-Blank securely covers the unused SSD slot to protect internal components from electrostatic discharge or accidental contact. The blanking cover provides an aesthetic facade to give the router a finished look with the slot occupied. The IRM-SSD-Blank features an easy installation process using captive thumbscrews to fasten the cover to the SSD slot opening.
With its rugged design, the IRM-SSD-Blank blanking cover allows the Cisco IR8300 router to maintain its environmental protection and resilience characteristics even when the SSD slot is unpopulated. This enables scalability and future expansion potential, as the cover can be removed and a SSD added as needed.
