Frequent Ask Questions
  • What is the Cisco N2K-C2232-FAN-B module?

    The Cisco N2K-C2232-FAN-B is a fan module designed for the Nexus 2232PP and 2232TM Fabric Extenders (FEX). It supports back-to-front airflow, also known as reversed airflow, where the intake is on the port side.

  • What is back-to-front airflow in the Cisco N2K-C2232-FAN-B?

    Back-to-front airflow, or reversed airflow, means that air is drawn in from the port side of the device and expelled through the back. This type of airflow is beneficial in certain data center configurations where cooling design requires this pattern.

  • Is the Cisco N2K-C2232-FAN-B compatible with all Nexus 2232 models?

    The Cisco N2K-C2232-FAN-B is specifically compatible with the Nexus 2232PP and 2232TM models. It may not be compatible with other Nexus models, so it\'s important to verify compatibility with your specific hardware.

  • Can the Cisco N2K-C2232-FAN-B be used as a replacement fan module?

    Yes, the Cisco N2K-C2232-FAN-B can be used as a spare or replacement fan module for the Nexus 2232PP and 2232TM FEX devices. Ensuring proper airflow direction is crucial when replacing fan modules to maintain optimal cooling performance.

  • How do I install the Cisco N2K-C2232-FAN-B fan module?

    To install the Cisco N2K-C2232-FAN-B fan module, ensure the device is powered off or in a safe maintenance mode, then slide the fan module into the appropriate slot, ensuring it is seated properly. Refer to the device\'s installation guide for detailed instructions.

  • What are the benefits of using the back-to-front airflow fan module?

    Using a back-to-front airflow fan module like the Cisco N2K-C2232-FAN-B helps to match specific data center cooling configurations, aiding efficient cooling and potentially reducing the risk of overheating for devices arranged in certain airflow structures.
