I suspect the combination of being able to dissipate 3.4kW of power, and the requested size and noise constraints may put this combination of features firmly beyond reasonable, even before considering cost.
But there is always room to hope. :)
- crote 2y agoA PoE-supplying switch doesn't need to dissipate that power. Assuming a power supply efficiency of 85%, supplying 3400W to downstream devices means having to dissipate 600W of heat. Keep in mind that you'd be supplying 71W to every single downstream port. That's an insane amount of power. Something like a Cisco Catalyst 9136I Access Point only comes up to 47W, and that's assuming 16 radios, double 5Gbit uplinks, and a USB device drawing 9W.
