Chapter 1      Removal and Replacement Procedures
  Removing and Installing the Fan Tray
Removing the Fan Tray 
The fan Tray is designed to be removed and replaced while the system is operating without presenting 
an electrical hazard or damage to the system.
WarningWhen removing the fan tray, keep your hands and fingers away from the spinning fan blades. Let the 
fan blades completely stop before you remove the fan tray. Statement 258
To remove the existing fan assembly, follow these steps:
Step 1If you are upgrading your chassis from a fan tray 1 (low speed) to a fan tray2 (high speed) and your 
chassis is equipped with a Supervisor Engine 2, you need to check that the current chassis configuration 
supports the fan tray upgrade. To do this, use the command hw-module fan-tray version 2 to check for 
configuration problems, such as power supply compatibility and power sufficiency. 
If the system does not detect any configuration issues, a message is displayed saying that it is OK to 
change the fan trays. If your chassis has either a Supervisor Engine 32 or a Supervisor Engine 720, skip 
this step and proceed to Step 2.
Step 2Locate the fan assembly in the chassis as follows:
Catalyst 6503 and Catalyst 6503-E switches—The fan tray is located to the left of the module cage. 
(See Figure 1-64.)
Catalyst 6504-E switch—The fan tray is located to the left of the module cage. (See Figure 1-65.) 
Catalyst 6506 and Catalyst 6506-E switches—The fan tray is located to the left of the module cage. 
(See Figure 1-66.)
Catalyst 6509 and Catalyst 6509-E switches—The fan tray is located to the left of the module cage. 
(See Figure 1-67.)
Catalyst 6509-NEB switch—The fan tray is located above the module cage. (See Figure 1-68.)
Catalyst 6509-NEB-A and Catalyst 6509-V-E switches —On those switch chassis equipped with the 
optional cable management system, you must first loosen the two captive installation screws located 
at the top of the cable management system and fold the cable guide down to access the fan assembly. 
(See Figure 1-69.) See Figure 1-70 for the location of the two fan trays on the Catalyst 6509-NEB-A 
switch. 
NoteMake sure there is adequate slack in the network interface cables to allow the cable guide to 
pivot down far enough to access the fan tray. If there is insufficient slack in the cables, the 
cable guide will not pivot far enough to give you access to the fan trays.
CautionA fully loaded cable management system can be heavy. Make sure that you provide proper support when 
lowering the cable guide.
Catalyst 6513 switch—The fan tray is located to the left of the module cage. (See Figure 1-71.) 
Catalyst 6513-E switch—The fan tray is located to the left of the module cage. Access to the fan 
tray is from the rear of the chassis. (See Figure 1-72.)
Step 3Loosen the two fan tray captive installation screws by turning them counterclockwise.

Chapter 1      Removal and Replacement Procedures
  Removing and Installing the Fan Tray
Step 4Grasp the fan assembly with both hands, and pull it outward; rock it gently, if necessary, to unseat the 
fan assembly power connector from the backplane. 
CautionWhen removing the fan tray, keep your hands and fingers away from the spinning fan blades. Let the fan 
blades stop completely before you remove the fan tray.
Step 5Pull the fan assembly clear of the chassis, and set it aside.

  Removing and Installing the Fan Tray
Installing the Fan Assembly
To install the new fan assembly, follow these steps:
Step 1Hold the fan assembly with the fans facing to the right and the FAN STATUS LED at the bottom. 
See Figure 1-64 for the Catalyst 6503 and Catalyst 6503-E switches.
See Figure 1-65 for the Catalyst 6504-E switch.
See Figure 1-66 for the Catalyst 6506 and Catalyst 6506-E switches.
See Figure 1-67 for the Catalyst 6509 and Catalyst 6509-E switches.
See Figure 1-71 for the Catalyst 6513 switch.
See Figure 1-72 for the Catalyst 6513-E switch
For the Catalyst 6509-NEB switch, hold the fan assembly with the fans facing down and the FAN 
STATUS LED on the left. (See Figure 1-68.) For the Catalyst 6509-NEB-A and the Catalyst 6509-V-E 
switches, hold the fan assembly so that the handle is at the top of the assembly. (See Figure 1-70.)
Step 2Place the fan assembly into the front chassis cavity so that it rests on the chassis, and then lift the fan 
assembly up slightly, aligning the top and bottom chassis guides.
Step 3Push the fan assembly into the chassis until the power connector seats in the backplane and the captive 
installation screws make contact with the chassis.
Step 4Tighten the captive installation screws. 
Step 5On the Catalyst 6509-NEB-A and the Catalyst 6509-V-E switches, fold the cable guide up, and tighten 
the two captive installation screws at the top of the chassis. (See Figure 1-69.)
A fully populated Catalyst 6509-V-E cable management system can be very heavy. As you pivot the 
cable guide back up after replacing the fan tray, you should gently rock the cable guide to allow the 
network interface cables to align themselves. This makes it easier for you to position the cable guide 
in front of the chassis so that the two captive installation screws can be engaged and tightened. Make 
sure that the network interface cables are not caught or pinched in the cable guide.
After positioning and securing the Catalyst 6509-V-E cable guide, verify that the tab at the back of 
the cable guide front panel is still engaged in the slot on the back of the cable guide next to the 
chassis. If the tab has popped loose, you must reinstall the tab in the slot.
Checking the Installation
To verify that the new fan assembly is installed correctly, follow these steps:
Step 1Listen for the fans; you should immediately hear them operating. If you do not hear them, ensure that 
the fan assembly is inserted completely in the chassis and that the faceplate is flush with the switch back 
panel.
Step 2Verify that the FAN STATUS LED is green. If the LED is red, one or more of the fans are faulty.
Step 3If after several attempts the fans do not operate or if you experience trouble with the installation (for 
instance, if the captive installation screws do not align with the chassis holes), contact a Cisco customer 
service representative for assistance.
