Replace Fan Modules
Replace a Fan Module
To replace the fan module in a switch, do the following:
1. Push the latching tab toward the fan module handle and pull outward on the handle to disengage
the fan module internal connectors. See
Figure 50: Removing a Fan Module
2. Carefully slide the fan module the rest of the way out of the switch.
3. Verify that the airflow direction on the replacement fan module matches that of the installed fan
modules.
Fans with front-to-back airflow are labeled Air Out.
Note
If you are not installing a replacement fan module, install a cover over the unoccupied fan
module slot. Unoccupied slots must always be covered to maintain proper system
ventilation.
