If you take the front of the frame (which has the fan module embedded in it) off by loosening the knob
in the center and then gently pulling it off, you can see the Fan Control Module that plugs into a
connector on the Fan Module.

Resource/Crosspoint Module (PV-144X144-
3G4 or PV-288X288-3G8)
The Resource/Crosspoint module is present in 4 and 8 RU frames. This module performs both Control
functions as well as Crosspoint functions. The module is located in the middle of the frame and visible
when the front panel door is removed.
The Resource/Crosspoint module that goes into a 4 RU frame is different from the one that goes into an
8 RU frame The
PV-144X144-3G4
Module goes in a 4 RU frame, and the
PV-288X288-3G8
module goes
in an 8 RU frame.
There are 2 slots in each frame for Resource/Crosspoint modules, but only one module is standard with
the frame. A second one can be purchased for redundancy. See Resource Module Redundancy (on page
45).
