T1600G-28PS fan question
Model :
Hardware Version : Not Clear
Firmware Version :
ISP :
I'm interested in picking up a T1600G-28PS as it has POE (compared to the T1600G-28TS which does not) but the switch will be in a fairly public area and I'm a bit concerned around the potential fan noise the 28PS introduces (the 28TS is fanless).
I fired off e-mails to sales and support but never got beyond a "we'll get back to you".
My questions are:
-Are the T1600G-28PS fans only on when the internal switch or ambient temperature would require cooling or are they always on?
-Are the fans variable speed (indicating they'd only run as fast/loud as the situation requires)?
-How loud are the fans (dB)?
As an FYI, if the fans for the 28PS are a problem (for me), I'll likely just go with the 28TS and an add-on to add POE inline; I was simply trying to avoid additional cabling/complexity if I could.
