Server, Switch and Chassis Fans
Replacement cooling fans for Dell PowerEdge (R640, R440, R6415, R6515, T430/T440) and HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen9 and Gen10 servers, fan modules for Cisco Nexus, MDS 9700 and Meraki switches, plus case fans and high-airflow blower fans from Noctua, Sanyo Denki San Ace and Octominer.
What to Check
- Part number and position: server fans are specific to the chassis, and some models use different fans for different positions. Match the OEM part number in the listing.
- Standard or high performance: high-TDP processors, GPUs or full drive bays can require the high-performance fan variant; check what your configuration needs.
- Adding a second CPU: on some servers, populating the second socket requires a full set of fans. Check your server's fan population rules.
- Switch airflow: fan modules for Cisco switches come in port-side intake or port-side exhaust. Every fan and power supply in the unit must have the same airflow direction.

Quick Answers: Buying from PCSP
Can I mix standard and high-performance fans in one server?
Most servers expect a matching set, and mixing can trigger fan errors or full-speed fans. Replace the whole set when you change fan type; our multi-fan lots exist for that.
What does port-side exhaust mean on a switch fan?
It is the airflow direction: air leaves the switch on the side with the ports. Port-side intake is the reverse. All fans and power supplies in one switch must match, and the direction should suit your rack's hot and cold aisles.
My server reports a fan failure. Which fan do I replace?
The server management log (iDRAC on Dell, iLO on HPE) names the failed fan by number. Match that fan's part number to the listing, or send us the server model and we will tell you which part it takes.
