HPE ProLiant DL380/DL560 Gen11 2U High Performance Fan Kit

P48820-B21 is the HPE ProLiant DL380/DL560 Gen11 2U High Performance Fan Kit. The kit contains six fans, and they replace all of the standard fans in the server so that all six fan cages are filled. Spare number P49960-001 is the 2U high-performance fan.

The kit is needed for specific ambient temperature environments and for certain ASHRAE operating environments. In the DL380 Gen11 it is required with any processor above 205 W TDP, whenever three front drive cages are fitted, when NVMe drives are selected, and when a GPU is added to the 8SFF, 8LFF, 12LFF or 12EDSFF configure-to-order models. Several 100Gb Ethernet adapters and the 200Gb and 400Gb InfiniBand/Ethernet adapters also require it, with the ambient temperature held to 25C. An NVMe bundle requires one kit.

The 24SFF configure-to-order model already includes six high-performance fans, while the 8LFF and 12LFF configure-to-order models ship with four standard fans. The DL380 2U Standard Fan Kit, P49146-B21, holds two standard fans and cannot be selected together with this kit; the high-performance kit can be used in place of the standard one in every configuration.
