Description

The NVIDIA Mellanox MTF005004 is a leaf-side cooling chassis fan unit for high-port-count Mellanox modular director switches scaling up to 216 ports, often referenced under the ORCA548 platform name. This is NOT a generic rack fan and NOT a CPU fan; it is a chassis-specific fan tray engineered for the airflow envelope of large multi-blade InfiniBand directors. MPN: MTF005004. Condition: Refurbished, RPM-tested at T.E.S IT-SOLUTIONS.

Engineering context. A 216-port modular director dissipates significant heat across many switch blades and the spine fabric. The MTF005004 drives airflow on the leaf side of the chassis, complementing the spine-side fan trays to maintain a complete front-to-back thermal corridor. The unit is hot-pluggable, allowing online replacement during a fan failure. Fan trays are normally deployed in N+1 redundancy.

Deployment and use cases. Used to keep ORCA548-class directors within thermal envelope under sustained line-rate loads — HPC fabrics, multi-rack InfiniBand SAN backbones, AI training fabrics, EDA grid computing, and any deployment where an existing director chassis has lost a fan tray and needs hot-swap replacement without a maintenance window.

Technical specifications:

  • Model: MTF005004
  • Type: Leaf-side chassis fan unit
  • Mounting: Hot-swappable fan tray
  • Target chassis: Mellanox modular director scaling up to 216 ports (ORCA548-class)
  • Airflow direction: Front-to-back
  • Redundancy: N+1 across chassis
  • Compliance: RoHS 6
  • Condition: Refurbished, RPM-tested

Compatibility and constraints. Compatible with the modular director chassis the MTF005004 is rated for (ORCA548-class, up to 216 ports). NOT compatible with smaller modular chassis or fixed-form Mellanox switches. The leaf-side and spine-side fan slots are distinct — verify the chassis slot the MTF005004 is rated for before installation. Buyer is responsible for confirming the chassis revision and existing fan tray inventory.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q. What is the MTF005004?
The MTF005004 is a leaf cooling chassis fan for the ORCA548-class director chassis, supporting up to 216-port configurations.

Q. Is this the leaf or spine fan?
This is specifically the leaf-side cooling assembly.

Q. Will T.E.S IT-SOLUTIONS confirm the fitment of MTF005004 before shipping?
Yes. T.E.S IT-SOLUTIONS (tes-itsolutions.com) inspects each unit before dispatch from EU stock.

Why TES. T.E.S IT-SOLUTIONS keeps stock of refurbished Mellanox director chassis spares, including fan trays, PSUs, switch blades, and management modules. Each MTF005004 is RPM-tested and visually inspected before shipment. Standard handling time is 1–3 business days. Visit tes-itsolutions.com for the wider InfiniBand director spares catalogue.
