5.1

Before You Begin

Before working with your server product, pay close attention to the safety instructions provided in this
manual. See Appendix A: Safety Information.

WARNING: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) and ESD protection: ESD can damage disk drives, boards, and
other parts. We recommend that you perform all procedures in this chapter only at an ESD workstation. If
one is not available, provide some ESD protection by wearing an anti-static wrist strap attached to
chassis ground (any unpainted metal surface) on your server when handling parts.

5.1.1 System References

All references to left, right, front, top, and bottom assume that you are facing the front of the server, as it
would be positioned for normal operation.

5.1.2 Cable Routing Reference

It is important for cables to be connected correctly. See Figure 24 and

Table 5 for cable routing and for more detailed information, see the Kontron CG1200 Carrier Grade
Server Technical Product Specification
.

5.2

Replacing Fans

The fan replacement spare kit for the CG1200 server contains five 40mm dual-rotor fans with their power
cables attached. For ordering information, see the CG1200 Carrier Grade Server Configuration Guide.
The latest version of the Configuration Guide is located on the Kontron support website at

http://us.kontron.com/support/

(search for CG1200, click on Product Downloads, then Ordering Guide).

Four of the 40x38mm dual-rotor fans are located in front of the server board and the two CPUs. These
fans provide cooling for the CPUs, memory DIMMs, and the HDD drives. The fifth fan is located at the
front left of the chassis. This fan cools the PCI riser card assembly area.

To replace a fan:

1. Power down the server and remove all peripheral devices and the power cord(s).

2. Remove the chassis cover. For instructions, see Section 3.2.1, “Removing the Chassis Cover”.

3. Remove the front bezel if you will be using the ESD ground attachment with your anti-static wrist

strap. For instructions, see Section 3.2.3, “Removing the Front Bezel”.

4. If you are replacing the PCIe riser card assembly fan (system fan 1), you must first remove the PCIe

riser card assembly. For instructions, see Section 3.2.5, “Removing the Riser Card Assembly”.
