Hello,
I am interested in the new CCR2004-16G-2S+ but this is for home use and I wonder it there is some fan noise.
I am using previous model CCR2004-1G-12S+2XS which has an external cooler and makes absolutely no noise.
Unfortunately, the CCR2004-1G-12S+2XS lacks a switch chip and hardware acceleration.
What is the level of noise of the CCR2004-16G-2S+ ?
Kind regards,
FF
Forget about the CCR2004-16G-2S.
I see in the block diagram that the SFP+ interfaces is not connected to the switch chip, but directly to the CPU.
So the switch chip will not speed up SFP+ connections.
What about the CCR2116-12G-4S+
All interfaces are connected to the switch chip, so it is suitable for hardware offloading.
Is it suitable for home use when little traffic?
I wonder about fan speed noise …
Anyone using the CCR2116-12G-4S, does it make some noise?
I understand that I will probably keep my CCR2004-16G-2S+ as it makes absolutely no noise.
After upgrading to RouterOS Latest beta, there is no longer fan noise.
Noise was also due to a 10Gbit SPF+ Ethernet connector.
10Gbit SPF+ Ethernet connector goes up 90°C until the fan cools it.
It is an infinite loop and cannot be avoided.
As a result, I no longer use copper and only fiber, temperature is down.
Noise if gone completely and I am very happy with the CCR2004-16G-2S+.
