Anyone else "back in the day" would buy portable air conditioners from the hardware store and sling them into your server broom cupboard in an attempt to keep things from overheating.

There's still a number of small ISP and telecom infrastructure sites cooled by setups like a pair of Haier consumer grade, ductless split 18000 to 24000btu/h units. Not an uncommon setup for places like small shelters at hilltop and mountaintop radio sites.
