Rotatable cold plate assembly for cooling pluggable modules
摘要
說明書
In some examples, the electronic actuator 660 may automatically move the second link 653 to the engaged position in response to the pluggable module 700 being installed in the bay 600. For example, when the pluggable module 700 is electrically connected to the connector 602, this may result in an electronic signal being generated that controls the actuator 660 to actuate the engagement mechanism 650. Thus, in such examples, a user does not need to take any special action beyond inserting the module 700 to actuate the cold plate engagement mechanism 650.
For example, the signal may be generated by control circuitry 800, which determines whether the module 700 is installed and controls the actuator 660 based on this. The control circuitry 800 may include one or more of, for example, a baseboard management controller (BMC) of the system board 2, a dedicated controller for the actuator 660, an operating system or other program executed by a processor of the system board 2, etc. Thus, operations described herein as being performed by the control circuitry 800 may not necessarily be performed by a single device—for example, a BMC may perform some operations, while a dedicated controller of the actuator 660 performs others.
