Replacing fan assemblies
Before replacing a fan assembly, have the following items available:
•
A new fan assembly, which you can order from Brocade
•
A small flat-blade screwdriver
•
An ESD wrist strap with a plug for connection to the ESD connector on the front of the device.
DANGER
For safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap should contain a series 1 megaohm resistor.
Use the following steps to replace a fan assembly.
1.
Put on the ESD wrist strap and ground yourself by inserting the plug into the ESD connector on the router.
2.
Using the screwdriver, remove the screws that secure the fan assembly faceplate to the rear of the router.
