CM4 IO Board cooling fan
This 12V PWM fan is built specifically for the Compute Module 4 IO Board and the CM4-IO-BOARD-CASE-A enclosure. It connects through a 4PIN reverse-proof connector that prevents incorrect insertion. The 40×40×10mm frame fits the designated mounting points on the board. Speed is adjustable via PWM so the system can balance airflow and noise.
Upgrade from passive cooling
Passive heatsinks on the CM4 IO Board can saturate under sustained compute loads, causing thermal throttling. Adding this fan moves air directly over the module and power circuitry, keeping clocks stable during long builds, compile jobs or data-logging sessions. The jump is worth it whenever the workload runs for minutes rather than seconds, or when the enclosure limits natural convection.
12V PWM interface limits
The fan requires a 12V PWM header; it will not run from a 5V fan connector or a simple two-wire header. Speed control depends on the board generating a PWM signal — without it the fan stays at full 5000 RPM or does not start, depending on the header implementation. The reverse-proof connector only fits one way, so builders must align the key before seating it.

Questions about this item
Will the 40×40×10 mm fan fit the CM4 IO Board mounting holes?
The fan is designed specifically for the Compute Module 4 IO Board and the CM4-IO-BOARD-CASE-A, so the 40×40×10 mm frame aligns with the board's mounting pattern.
How do I connect the 4-pin reverse-proof connector without damaging the header?
Align the keyed 4-pin plug with the board's fan header — the reverse-proof design prevents backward insertion — then press straight down until seated; the PWM wire carries the speed signal.
When should I replace the 12 V 5000 RPM fan?
Replace it if bearing noise increases, airflow drops noticeably, or the PWM speed no longer reaches 5000±10 % RPM under load.
