### 2. Physical Design & Mounting
The part number indicates a specific configuration for electronic cooling:
* **Low Profile:** At only 10mm high, it is designed for tight spaces in server racks or thin electronic enclosures.
* **pushPIN™ Attachment:** It uses a brass or plastic pin and a high-performance compression spring. This ensures even pressure across the electronic component (TIM - Thermal Interface Material), which is critical for preventing "hot spots."
* **Pre-Applied TIM:** These units typically come with a pre-applied **T766** thermal interface material, ensuring immediate "peel-and-stick" style thermal conductivity.

### 3. Thermal Performance (Cooling Efficiency)
Thermal resistance is measured in Celsius per Watt (°C/W). Lower values indicate better heat dissipation.
| Air Velocity (LFM) | 100 | 200 | 300 | 400 | 500 |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| **Resistance (°C/W)** | 14.20 | 6.95 | 3.84 | 2.80 | 2.25 |
