    Takeaways

    • 8-port models (SW-505-8P-R, SW-505-8P-F) are completely fanless — silent operation.
    • 16 and 24-port models stay well below normal conversation level (60 dB) even at high fan speed.
    • 48-port models top out around 52.2 dB on high — still quieter than a vacuum cleaner (85 dB) and well below a lawnmower (90 dB).
    • Even the loudest switch in the lineup is dramatically quieter than common household appliances, making the SW Series a good fit for quiet installation environments (offices, media closets near living spaces, etc.).
