Noctua NA-FH1 8-Channel PWM Fan Hub

Up to 54W via S-ATA and 24W via 4-pin

When powered via its S-ATA interface (for 12V fans only), the NA-FH1 can run fans with a combined power draw of up to 54W. When using the 4-pin PWM input only (for 5V or 12V fans), the maximum power draw can go as high as 24W.

Controlling high-power fans safely

If both its S-ATA and 4-pin input ports are connected, the NA-FH1 will automatically draw power via S-ATA and use the 4-pin port for PWM control and RPM monitoring only. This way, it is possible to control fans with high power consumption safely without risking damage to the motherboard.

RPM and status monitoring

The NA-FH1 transmits the RPM speed signal of the fan connected to the first port to the motherboard for speed monitoring. For additional watchdog functionality, all ports feature status LEDs that light up if an RPM signal is received and go off if the fan stops or fails.

Compatible with 4-pin PWM and 3-pin fans

While only 4-pin PWM fans can be controlled via PWM, the NA-FH1’s keyed output connectors are also compatible with 3-pin fans, so it can also be used to run multiple 3-pin fans from a single power source and to adjust their speed simultaneously by reducing the input voltage.

Suitable for 12V and 5V fans

Supporting both 12V and 5V (4-pin power input only) operation, the NA-FH1 not only works great with 12V PC fans but is also an elegant solution for running multiple Noctua 5V fans, many of which include USB adaptor cables that can be used to connect the NA-FH1 to mobile phone power supplies or power banks.

Ideal combination with an optional NA-FC1 fan controller

The NA-FH1 is perfect for controlling multiple PWM fans using the optional NA-FC1 controller. Thanks to a reverse-power design on the 4-pin input of the NA-FH1, the NA-FC1 can control the connected fans even if the hub is powered via its S-ATA interface only and if there is no other connection or input on the 4-pin interface.

Easy installation with magnets

The NA-FH1 features four strong neodymium magnets on the rear side, which allows it to simply snap into place on any magnetic surface, such as inside steel PC cases. On non-magnetic surfaces such as aluminium PC cases, the flat rear side of the device makes it possible to quickly fix it with double-sided or velcro tape.

30cm input cable included

The NA-FH1 is shipped with a 30cm NA-EC1 input cable to connect it to the motherboard PWM fan headers. For applications requiring further extending the input cable or the output cables to the fans, Noctua offers the NA-SEC1 (30cm) and NA-SEC3 (60cm) cable sets.

Overcurrent and short-circuit protection with safety fuses

Especially when drawing power from a PC power supply via S-ATA connectors, short circuits on the connected cables or devices can cause hazardous situations such as cable fires. For extra safety, the NA-FH1 has auto-resetting fuses on the S-ATA and 4-pin input. It can automatically shut down in case of overcurrent or short-circuits on one of the connected devices or cables.

Safety certifications

Unlike many cheap fan hubs, the NA-FH1 has been carefully tested for product safety and EMC compliance. Carrying CE, UKCA and UL certifications and meeting all applicable standards (EN 62368-1, EN 55035, EN 55032, UL-507), it is a safe, quality device through and through.

6-year manufacturer’s warranty

Noctua products are renowned for their impeccable quality and outstanding longevity. Like Noctua’s fans and heatsinks, the NA-FH1 is a robust, dependable product carefully engineered to stand the test of time.
