Overview of Fan Trays
The Cisco Nexus 7710 switch supports two types of fan trays:
• 38 mm Gen 1 Fan Tray (N77-C7710-FAN)
• 76 mm Gen 2 Fan Tray (N77-C7710-FAN-2)—Use this fan tray for Network Equipment Building System
(NEBS) compliance when the Cisco Nexus 7700 M3-Series 12-port 100-Gigabit Ethernet I/O module
(N77-M312CQ-26L) or the Cisco Nexus 7700 F4-Series 30-port 100-Gigabit Ethernet I/O module
(N77-F430CQ-36) is installed on the switch.
During normal switch operations, all 3 fan trays in a switch should be of the same type.
Note
Fan trays provide airflow through a switch for cooling. Each fan tray contains multiple fans to provide
redundancy. The switch can continue functioning in the following situations:
• One or more fans fail within a fan tray—Even with multiple fan failures, the switch can continue
functioning. When a fan fails within a tray, the functioning fans in the module increase their speed to
compensate for the failed fans. If a fan fails, the failed fan has to be replaced.
The following is a sample output displaying a fan failure, along with the associated syslogs:
