Fan Modules
The cooling system in an ACX6160 consists of fan modules and a single fan in each power supply. There
are five fan modules in the ACX6160, each fan module has two fans.
The fan modules in the ACX6160 are hot-insertable and hot-removable field-replaceable units (FRUs).
These fan modules are designed to work with the airflow out direction. The fan modules are installed in
the fan module slots on the rear panel of the device next to the power supplies. The ACX6160 has five
fan modules numbered 0 through 4 from left to right. Each fan module slot has a fan icon next to it.
