Rigid structure for durability

Traditional aluminum honeycomb vent panels are easily deformed and damaged. 5G MaxAir™ is made with an aluminum metallized polycarbonate honeycomb to offer durability and flexibility. The frameless design eliminates the need for costly frame designs and allows for a press-fit installation. The vent panel offers increased airflow and EMI protection to enable the reliable operation of hyperscale data centers.
