❑ Refer to the chassis’ Installation Guide to verify that the module is
appropriate for the unit.
❑ The AT-MCF2KFAN module draws its power from the backplane of the
chassis. It does not have a power cord.
Note
Do not remove a blank panel from the chassis until you are ready to install
a module, especially if the device is powered on. An open slot allows dust
to enter the unit and impedes the ability of the chassis to maintain proper
airflow and cooling.

AT-MCF2KFAN FAN Module LED
The fan module has one LED labeled STATUS. The states of the LED are
defined in this table.
State Description
Green The fans in the module are operating normally.
Amber A fan has failed and stopped.
Troubleshooting the AT-MCF2KFAN Fan Module
If the chassis is powered on but the fans in the AT-MCF2KFAN module are
not operating, either the fan module is not receiving power or the module has
failed. Try the following:
❑ Verify that the module is fully seated in the power supply/fan slot in the
chassis.
❑ Verify that the power cord to the power supply module in the chassis is
firmly connected to the power supply module and the power source.
❑ View the STATUS LED on the fan module. If the LED is amber, a fan has
failed and stopped. Replace the module.
❑ Try removing and reinstalling the fan module.
