Hello,

I am building a fibre channel san. I need to put it in a single room
(no dedicated server room).
I have seen that some fibre channel switch are very noisy because they
have high speed fan to keep them cold.
I would like to know if exist a low noise switch (fanless?).
Can you help me?

Thanks in advance!
