40-43C is normal. this equal to 104-110F. you will get alarm starting at 75C=167F. i personally wouldn't want my switch to get this hot. i look for 55C=131F.

the operating temperature is between 32-104F (0-40C). you will get alarms based on these thresholds. remember these are measured in Celsius. 60 degree celsius is pretty hot! I would not let my switch run this hot for any extensive period.

Chassis Temperature = 42 degrees Celsius

Chassis Over Temperature Threshold = 75 degrees Celsius

Chassis Critical Temperature Threshold = 95 degrees Celsius

So my switch runs between 40 - 43 degrees do you think this is ok. at what stage should i be concerned
