I have four of the 24 port versions of this switch, and none of them have fans. I have had the oldest of these switches running for a bout 2 years with no problems. These switches barely get warm. I have never had to restart any of these switches due to a glitch or a problem. The version I have is the DGS-1024D

I don't remember hearing a fan. But I have the router in my garage in a cabinet. The temperature says 80 degrees F and the switch has been just fine. During the winter is got to about 20 degrees. Performs great for me!

Mine has no fan, is extremely quiet and is really cool to the touch. I think older versions of this had a fan, but to me that's just something to break or collect dust.

I bought this for my old employer and haven't seen this unit for a long time. I think it had a fan, but I'm not sure. I don't remember it being especially loud. But it was in a temperature-controlled closet with a lot of other equipment, so the whole closet had a bit of a fan-hum to it. Sorry I can't give you more information. Good luck in your purchase.

No noise since I've had it in place which has been installed for about 1.5-2 yrs now. Hope this helps. Thanks

Yes it does have a fan and no it is not that quiet. This thing is pretty powerful and I have only seen it clip once. That was because I was running it hard through a cabinet that was not powerful enough for it. It didn't hurt it though. I went and bought another cabinet and it works fine. In a room that is really quiet or room that is small yes it can be heard.

I hear absolutely zero noise. I dont think it even has a fan? One thing tho: I had an older model and the dsp chip died at some point. Repair was going to be 400 bucks so i had to trash it and buy a new one. Not really cool.

It does have an intermittent fan, it comes on once it gets hot. The fan isn't noisy at all

Yes, it does have a small fan. I guess I should have said that, but thought it would be inferred from my comments about the unit being relatively quiet. It does not move a lot of air, but does push the heat out a good 8 feet or so. It only takes about 15 minutes to heat up my living room (16'x20'+/-) from below 60 to near 68 when I get home at night.

It does not have an internal fan. However, the unit emits a quite but high pitched squeal. Mine is about 4-5 feet away from my chair and it does not bother me at all. You have to be very close to detect the noise.

It does have a fan, which is very quiet. This fridge can be used to make contents either hot or cold.

I do not consider the unit to be loud. It does run a fan continuously to move the air in the room so it does not turn off very much. The unit has an energy star rating. Love the unit - - seems to be one of the best that I've encountered.

It sounds like a normal fan. It's not extremely loud, but it does make noise. It works extremely well. I have a one bedroom as well and I love it.

We deployed this unit out to a client so its not something that I have daily interaction with. However, I don't recall it being something that stood out to me or if I even noticed any fan noise at all. I know that isn't a great deal of useful information but wanted to get a response back to you.

I have only had the unit one night, but the fan noise does seem a little loud. Which is unfortunate because I kept reading how quiet it is and that is one of the main reasons I bought one. Not sure if it is just my unit, or if this is just how normally loud it is for others? Also, my fan ALWAYS seems to be running, even if I am not pushing it hard at all.

No.... not at all. it's very quiet. FYI... we have two.. and both work very well.. no complaints whatever.

I have it in the bedroom, and I haven't had an issue with buzzing or any noise. And no I don't think it has a fan but I don't know

It's relatively quiet for a fan. Anytime you have fan blades moving air, you have a hum, of course, just from the friction with the air, but there is little to no motor sound. I find it quite steady and quiet.

I do not hear any cooling fan. I don't think there is a fan in the unit (but I haven't taken it apart).
