Juniper FFTRAY-MX960-HC-S High-Capacity Fan Tray for MX960 Router

Brand:

The FFTRAY-MX960-HC-S is a high-capacity cooling fan tray designed for the Juniper MX960 Universal Routing Platform. It delivers enhanced airflow required for high-density interface deployments, helping maintain reliable operating temperatures in enterprise, service provider, and data center environments. As a hot-swappable field-replaceable unit (FRU), it enables maintenance and upgrades with minimal service disruption while supporting long-term infrastructure availability.

OVERVIEW

  • The Juniper FFTRAY-MX960-HC-S is a high-capacity fan tray engineered for the Juniper MX960 Universal Routing Platform, providing the enhanced cooling required for demanding routing environments. Unlike standard-capacity fan trays, the high-capacity version incorporates twelve fans instead of six, making it suitable for MX960 systems populated with high-density DPCs and MPCs that generate greater thermal loads. It is designed as a hot-insertable and hot-removable field-replaceable unit (FRU), allowing maintenance without shutting down the router. Organizations upgrading existing MX960 platforms or replacing aging cooling components benefit from improved thermal performance, better infrastructure resilience, and longer hardware lifespan while supporting enterprise networking, carrier infrastructure, cloud connectivity, and digital transformation initiatives. When upgrading from standard-capacity cooling, Juniper requires both upper and lower fan trays, along with the matching high-capacity filter tray, to be replaced together for proper airflow.
