This Aug I bought two Ubiquiti EdgeSwtich 24-lite for DC usage, it made a living hell for me due to it does not have any fan at all. Its idle temperature went to unbelievable 70c/158f.
I am extremely upset and without any 5v/12v output in the switch, it makes adding fan into the switch very difficult. The switches need to be deployed into the DC within 24 hours, so overclocker/watercooling part of me take over. The switch over 120V AC to 25v DC, so I soldered a 22up capacitor , put two 12v fan in serial.
I have two designs for the mod. 1st one without the wind tunnel
2nd design with wind tunnel
now, burning time, and yes the middle one is my SM C2758 use for pfsense
Left with wind tunnel drop from 70c -> 52c , the right without wind tunnel drop from 70c -> 66c basically is useless
So design #2 wins and I am happy that I was able to fix this design disaster within 24 hrs. My advice is to stay away from it.
