M4100-D12G temperature

Hi,

 

I've M4100-D12G switch and have a question about System temperature. Switch is inside rack cabinet (4U) and System temperature is 47-52C. Cabinet is located in one of my office room. Is this temperature normal? Switch is hot (I had warranty replacement for a new one and the same results). I have M4100 24-ports or 48-ports or 24ports M5300 switches and they have lower temp - 27 to 40C. Yes I know they have fans... but I think temperature M4100-D12G is to high. Or am I wrong? 🙂

Model: M4100-D12G (GSM5212)|ProSafe 12 ports gigabit fully managed L2 switch

Hello chfascik, 

 

Welcome to the community! 

 

I would say it is a little hot but not to the extent of being alarming. Make sure that the temperature of the environment is 0 degrees to 50 degrees Celcius. Check if all of the fans are active as well, monitor the switch and see if the temperature increases.

 

Thanks,

JohnRo - thanks for reply.

 

M4100-D12G doesn't have fan so it can't be cool down by air. I tried made same rack mode and add dedicated fans to rack case. So now it's quit well. Temperature is 40-45C.

 

Thanks for help.
