Fan HP Enterprise P58464-B21 ProLiant DL3X5 Gen11 206.5mm x 279.4mm x 101.6mm

The HP Enterprise P58464-B21 ProLiant DL3X5 Gen11 fan is a server cooling component sized 206.5mm x 279.4mm x 101.6mm, designed to provide consistent airflow and thermal management within compatible ProLiant Gen11 chassis. It is intended to replace or upgrade existing fan modules to maintain optimal operating temperatures for processors, memory and storage subsystems, helping to preserve server stability and component lifespan.

Advantages

This fan delivers stable airflow tailored for ProLiant DL3X5 Gen11 systems, offering reliable performance under continuous load. Its form factor matches the server’s fan bay dimensions to ensure secure fitment and efficient heat evacuation. The component is built for long duty cycles typical of data center environments and supports predictable thermal behaviour to reduce throttling or unplanned shutdowns.

Suitable for

• ProLiant DL3X5 Gen11 rack servers requiring a replacement or spare cooling fan
• Server maintenance and hardware refurbishment tasks in data centers
• IT technicians performing preventative hardware swaps to maintain cooling efficiency
• Systems where proper airflow is necessary to sustain high-density compute workloads

Key specifications

• Compatibility: Designed for use in ProLiant DL3X5 Gen11 server chassis
• Dimensions: 206.5 mm x 279.4 mm x 101.6 mm (length × width × height)
• Function: Active cooling / airflow generation for server internal components
• Operational environment: Intended for continuous operation in data center/server room conditions
• Mounting: Module sized to fit designated fan bay of compatible ProLiant Gen11 servers

How to use

Power down the server and follow the manufacturer’s service manual for safe access to the fan bay. Remove the existing fan module according to the chassis instructions and install the P58464-B21 unit, ensuring the connector and mounting points align correctly. Reconnect cables and any retention hardware, then power on the server and verify that the system BIOS or management interface recognizes the fan and reports normal speed and status. Observe initial operating temperatures and fan noise to confirm proper installation.

Recommendations

Perform installation during scheduled maintenance windows to avoid service disruption. Ensure dust filters and adjacent airflow pathways are clean to maintain expected cooling performance. Monitor server thermal metrics after replacement and keep spare modules on hand for rapid swap in critical environments.
