This is a genuine Dell PowerEdge R640 High Performance Hot-Swap System Cooling Fan (P/N: KG52T). This is the upgraded, factory-original fan required to properly cool high-TDP (Thermal Design Power) processors and other demanding configurations in a Dell PowerEdge R640 server. It is engineered to provide the superior airflow needed to ensure maximum performance and system stability under heavy computational loads.
Key Features
-
Genuine Dell Part: Ensures a perfect fit and optimal thermal performance as tested and certified by Dell for the R640 chassis.
-
Required for High-TDP CPUs: This specific "High Performance" fan is mandatory for server configurations using high-wattage processors. The standard fan may not provide sufficient cooling for these top-tier CPUs.
-
Hot-Swap Design: The fan is mounted in a hot-swappable caddy, allowing for quick and easy replacement without shutting down the server, which is critical for maintaining uptime.
