Arista FAN-7021H-RED | High Speed Fan Module for 7200 Series, Front-to-Rear

Q: Which Arista platforms is this fan module compatible with?
A: The FAN-7021H-RED is compatible with Arista 7200 Series enterprise WAN routers, including the AWE-7230R and AWE-7250R models, as well as select 7000 Series switches. Check your product datasheet for specific compatibility.

Q: What does the RED designation indicate?
A: The RED suffix indicates front-to-rear (exhaust) airflow direction. This must match the airflow direction of your power supplies and chassis design to maintain proper cooling efficiency.

Q: Can I replace this fan module without powering down the router?
A: Yes, the FAN-7021H-RED is designed as a hot-swappable module, allowing field replacement without system downtime, assuming redundant fan modules are present and functional.

Q: Is this a high-speed or standard fan module?
A: This is a high-speed fan module, optimized for environments requiring increased cooling capacity, such as high-density configurations or elevated ambient temperatures.

Q: What should I consider when ordering replacement fans?
A: Always verify the airflow direction matches your existing configuration. Front-to-rear models like the FAN-7021H-RED must not be mixed with rear-to-front modules in the same chassis.
