Cisco ASR1013-FAN Full English Description

Product Overview

Important Note: OIR (Online Insertion and Removal) is supported under IOS XE with defined ambient temperature limits. All fan tray replacement operations must be completed within the chassis thermal protection timeout window to avoid emergency over-temperature shutdown. Standard ESD anti-static handling procedures must be followed during installation and removal. This fan tray cannot be interchanged with ASR1002-FAN, ASR1004-FAN, ASR1006-FAN, ASR1000X-FAN or fan modules for any other ASR1000 / ASR9000 router models.

Key Features

1. Intelligent Variable-Speed Thermal Regulation

   The fan tray dynamically adjusts fan rotor rotational speed based on real-time internal chassis temperature, operating altitude and overall system thermal load. Fans operate at low RPM under light traffic loads to reduce power consumption and acoustic noise, and automatically accelerate to boost airflow when internal temperatures rise. All environmental telemetry data is uploaded to IOS XE for unified environmental monitoring.
2. Front-to-Rear Airflow Architecture

   Cool air enters the front intake of the ASR1013 chassis; hot exhaust air discharges toward the rear of the rack. Maintain sufficient unobstructed ventilation clearance on the front and rear of the rack to avoid airflow blockage and prevent thermal hotspots.
3. OIR (Online Insertion and Removal) Support

   Field engineers can execute fan tray replacement while the router remains powered and continues forwarding live network traffic. Operators must strictly adhere to the official maintenance time limit to prevent triggering chassis thermal protection.
4. Visual Status LED & Remote Monitoring

   Front-panel status LED delivers straightforward local status indication:

• Solid Green: All internal fan rotors operate normally
• Solid Amber/Red: Fan fault or over-temperature alarm triggered
  IOS XE generates syslog entries and sends SNMP traps to centralized monitoring platforms immediately once fan anomalies are detected.

1. Internal Fan Redundancy

   Multiple independent fan rotors are integrated within a single tray assembly. If a single rotor fails, remaining fans supply temporary partial cooling capacity. Administrators should arrange FRU replacement promptly to eliminate cooling vulnerability and operational risk.
2. Enterprise & Carrier-Grade Reliability

   Industrial brushless DC fan assembly engineered for 24/7 continuous operation in large enterprise core networks, internet peering nodes, service provider aggregation and mobile backhaul routing environments.
