Connectivity and compatibility

This fan module is designed to fit seamlessly into the X870 switch chassis, matching the airflow direction used in enterprise data centers and campus aggregation closets. Its front-to-back airflow supports standard hot aisle and cold aisle configurations, making it a natural fit for environments where multiple devices are densely packed and heat buildup is a concern.

Installation and setup

Replacing the fan module is straightforward: simply slide out the existing unit and insert the new one. This process requires no special tools and minimizes downtime, allowing network administrators to quickly restore proper cooling and maintain network uptime. The lightweight construction further simplifies handling during installation, even in high rack positions.

Ideal uses and environments

The 17115 fan module is well suited to enterprise data centers, campus network closets, and other professional IT environments where the X870 series switches are deployed. It supports setups that follow hot aisle/cold aisle airflow management, helping to keep equipment cool and stable. Network teams benefit from keeping spare modules on hand for preventive maintenance or rapid replacement to avoid cooling-related disruptions.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
