TL-SX3206HPP mounting position
Hi, I'm planning to buy another SX3206HPP, but have a rather unusual installation question. The place I want to install it, it only allows me vertical mount, with the ports facing sideways.
In the documentation, it is only indicated horizontal mount, however, if I mount it in such a way, that the heat is pushed upwards, would it be a problem? Or are the fan bearings not suitable for side loading?
Thanks for answering.
Well, couldn't find another suitable 10G managed poe switch, with sfp+ uplink, so still bought a second SX3206HPP and mount it vertical. And with the fans blowind down.
Surprinsinly, or maybe not, it runs 5 degrees Celsius cooler than the other rack mounted switch. It hovers around 43 degrees Celsius, month of April spring. It will be interesting to see how long the fans bearings will last. I will buy some spares just in case.
