Description

The Cisco C9606-FAN is a field-replaceable fan tray assembly designed specifically for the Catalyst 9606R 6-slot modular chassis. It features nine independently controlled fans arranged in three rows, providing robust side-to-side airflow with N+1 redundancy to ensure continuous cooling even if individual fans fail. Hot-swappable design enables maintenance without system shutdown, making it ideal for mission-critical enterprise campus and data center deployments requiring high availability.

Features

Nine individually controlled fans for precise thermal management
- N+1 redundancy ensures continuous operation even with single fan failure
- Automatic fan speed adjustment compensates for fan failures and environmental conditions
- Side-to-side airflow optimized for enterprise campus wiring closets and rack rooms
- Hot-swappable field replacement minimizes downtime
- Barometric pressure sensor enables slower, quieter fan speeds at lower altitudes
- Temperature sensor integration triggers alarms when thresholds are exceeded
- Front or rear accessibility for flexible data center cable management
- Embedded RFID tag facilitates asset tracking and inventory management
- Service mode enables safe removal by pre-cooling chassis to full fan speed
- IOS XE software integration provides real-time monitoring and syslog alerts
- Fail-safe design: system powers down if temperature exceeds shutdown threshold
- Critical cooling protection prevents permanent damage to chassis modules and line cards

FAQs

Q: Is the C9606-FAN hot-swappable?
A: Yes, the C9606-FAN is hot-swappable and can be replaced while the system is running. However, you must complete the replacement within 120 seconds after enabling service mode, or the system will power down to prevent overheating.

Q: What happens if one of the fans fails in the C9606-FAN tray?
A: The fan tray features N+1 redundancy. If a single fan fails, the remaining fans in the same row automatically increase speed to compensate. If two or more fans fail, the entire fan tray operates at full speed after one minute, and the tray should be replaced.

Q: Can the C9606-FAN be accessed from both the front and rear of the chassis?
A: Yes, the Catalyst 9606R chassis supports optional rear accessibility for the fan tray, enabling efficient cable management. The fan tray can be serviced from either the front or rear depending on your installation requirements.

Q: Is this fan tray compatible with other Catalyst 9000 Series chassis?
A: No, the C9606-FAN is specifically designed for the Cisco Catalyst 9606R 6-slot modular chassis and is not compatible with other Catalyst 9000 Series models such as the 9400 or 9500 Series.

Q: How does the fan tray optimize cooling efficiency?
A: The C9606-FAN features intelligent cooling that dynamically adjusts fan speeds based on real-time temperature readings and barometric pressure sensors. This optimization maintains minimum required cooling while reducing energy consumption and noise at lower altitudes and temperatures.
