Brocade Ruckus ICX7250-48P-2X10G fans

[Headcount4580]

I was reading https://forums.servethehome.com/ind...s-cheap-powerful-10gbe-40gbe-switching.21107/ and thought that this switch was relatively quiet once booted. It seems quite loud, even when auto fan speed control is on speed 1.

Good deal at $100 on eBay, but if I can't fix it, I'm inclined to return. Thoughts?

Do you use poe? Are you over 150w poe budget?
If no try the fanless mode: Vistance Networks Technical Content Portal

Fanless isn't available on the ICX7250, though an option is to return it and get an ICX7150 which does.

Search that thread for fan mod and you’ll find a few suggestions which may help, but being 1U there’s always gonna be some noise
