Fans plug on Intel motherboard

Featured Replies

I have a question with regards connecting some fans to an Intel motherboard model S2600CP.

The motherboard documentation is here: https://www.intel.com/content/dam/support/us/en/documents/motherboards/server/sb/g54899001_s2600cp_p4000cp_sg_rev14.pdf 

On page 20-21 there are 4 FAN connectors named X and Y, AF and AG.

The problem is that I have no idea what kind of connectors are these: 6 PINs. I attached a picture too 

I was planning to use these motherboard connectors to replace some old case fans which are using a 4 pin MOLEX connector.

4.5 Fan Header Connector Descriptions

 

All system fan headers support pulse width modulated (PWM) fans for cooling the processors in the chassis. PWM fans have an improved RPM range (20% to 100% rated fan speed) when compared to voltage controlled fans. Base and BRP chassis fans are a 4-wire/4-pin style designed to plug into 4-pin or 6-pin SSI Fan headers. When plugged into a 6-pin header, only the first four signals are used (Pwr, Gnd, Tach, PWM).

 

LX chassis fans are a 6-wire/6-pin style designed to plug into 6-pin headers. The extra signals provide for fan redundancy and failure indications (Pwr, Gnd, Tach, PWM, Presence, and Failure). Server Boards installed in this chassis may feature two additional 4-pin CPU fan headers and one additional 4-pin system fan headers. These connections are not required for use with the Intel® Server Chassis SC5600. To assist with fan connections in the system, the system fans are numbered one through five and color-coded. These correspond to fan header numbers on the server board. Fan 1 and fan 2 connectors are white in color and the fan 3, fan 4, and fan 5 connectors are blue in color. These colors should also match between server board and fans.
