Abstract
A server cabinet includes a rack assembly accommodating a number of servers, a number of fan groups, a first power source, and a second power source. The fan groups are coupled to a rear side of the rack assembly to provide horizontal airflow for dissipating heat generated by the number of servers. Each fan group includes a first fan and a second fan. The first power source is electrically connected to the first fan of each fan group, while the second power source is electrically connected to the second fan of each fan group.
