The exact N3K-C3048-FAN row in Cisco’s Nexus 3048 ordering table identifies a forward-airflow fan module: cooling air exits at the port side. Cisco lists N3K-C3048-FAN= separately as the spare order. Confirm which ordering row the quotation supplies; an equals suffix is not removed from a part label or purchase record.
The nearby N3K-C3048-FAN-B row is port-side intake. These are opposite cooling directions, not an automatic interchange. Cisco’s chassis replacement procedure requires replacement airflow to match the other installed fan and power-supply modules. Use the actual module markings and installed configuration to check the replacement. A host switch’s Ethernet ports and throughput are not fan-module capabilities.
EOL14841 includes this exact exhaust-fan PID. Cisco’s manufacturer-sale milestone was 28 February 2023; the deadline for new service attachment was 28 February 2024. Support ends on 29 February 2028 for eligible active contracts or applicable warranty terms. The bulletin names no replacement. Confirm any coverage for the offered serial number separately; the support milestone does not establish available inventory.
The official Nexus3048TP diagram identifies the fan tray within the host assembly. It illustrates the installation context only, not a photograph of the quoted N3K-C3048-FAN unit. This fan listing does not include a switch chassis. Verify the supplied quantity, part-label evidence and return arrangements before purchase. Follow the applicable Cisco service procedure; unrestricted hot swapping is not promised.
