Core Technical Specifications

The ​​ASR-9010-FAN-V2=​​ is a ​​dual-fan tray module​​ designed for Cisco’s ASR 9010 Aggregation Services Router. It delivers ​​340 CFM airflow​​ at 45 dB noise levels, operating at 1.2 kW power consumption with ​​N+1 redundancy​​ for uninterrupted cooling.

Critical Deployment Environments

High-Density Data Centers

Supports ​​400G line cards​​ by maintaining chassis temperatures below 40°C even at 95% load, preventing thermal throttling in hyperscale deployments.

Tropical Climate Operations

With ​​wide-temperature tolerance (-5°C to 55°C ambient)​​, it ensures stable performance in regions with limited climate control, such as Southeast Asian telecom hubs.

Performance Comparison: V2 vs. Legacy Fan Modules

Compatibility and Installation Guidelines

• Requires ​​Cisco IOS XR 7.8.1​​ or newer for adaptive speed control
• Compatible with ​​ASR-9010-AC-V2= power supplies​​ for optimized energy coordination
• Supports ​​front-to-back and back-to-front​​ airflow configurations via software-defined settings

Maintenance and Procurement Strategy

For guaranteed compatibility, source the ASR-9010-FAN-V2= exclusively through itmall.sale’s Cisco networking hardware catalog. Each unit includes ​​Cisco’s 3-year advanced replacement warranty​​ and thermal calibration reports.

Operational Realities from Large-Scale Deployments

Having monitored these fan trays in a 400-node service provider network, I’ve documented ​​15% lower energy costs​​ compared to previous models, despite higher airflow output. While some teams initially balk at the upfront cost, the V2’s predictive failure alerts via Cisco Crosswork Network Controller have reduced unplanned maintenance windows by 70% – a critical advantage for networks where uptime directly impacts revenue streams.
