CTW Fan Module Connector
COMPACT, COST-EFFECTIVE
SOLUTION FOR SWITCH
APPLICATIONS
CTW (Card-to-Wire) fan module connector comes with
a flexible design for card-to-wire power applications
used in fan modules. It allows different wire gauges
ranging from 28AWG - 22AWG. The connector provides a
maximum current rating of 4A/pin.
CTW fan module connector comprising of standard and
smart versions, offers a cost-effective solution with a
less airflow drop compared to conventional card-to-
board fan connector solutions.
Standard fan module can be easily assembled with a cover
and wires can be tidied up. It has optional idle keys for
fan model identification and optional light pipe-frame
orientation (left/right).
Smart fan module has an IC slot which allows the
recording of fan operations through IC, preferably the ST
Microelectronics M24C64 series (SO8 (MN) 150 mil width).
Provision of an extra pin each on the IC side and on the
power side allows for detection and FMLB operations.
