Arista FAN-7000H-R B-F Fan Module for 7050X3, 7060X, 7160, 7280R Series

The FAN-7000H-R is a high-speed spare fan module for Arista 1RU switches in the 7050X3, 7060X, 7160, 7170 and 7280R Series. The higher fan speed supports the cooling needs of these denser 25G, 100G and deep-buffer platforms.

This version moves air back-to-front (port-side exhaust). Arista also sells the opposite airflow version, the FAN-7000H-F. Every fan module and power supply in the switch should move air in the same direction. A single mismatched fan reduces cooling and can push internal temperatures up.

Match the airflow to how the switch sits in the rack. If the switch ports face the cold aisle, use front-to-back parts; if the ports face the hot aisle, use back-to-front parts. Check the fans and power supplies already installed before ordering spares.

When a fan module fails, replacing it promptly restores full cooling headroom. Because one part fits five switch families, a few spares can cover a mixed installed base.

Arista also sells the FAN-7000H-F fan module with the opposite airflow. A new FAN-7000H-R is also available.

Because the module is hot-swappable, you can replace a failed fan without powering the switch down. Swap one module at a time so the remaining fans keep cooling the system.

This seller refurbished FAN-7000H-R is tested, working, and covered by the NetworkTigers one-year warranty.
