Quiet Fanless 24 or 48 Port Switch with POE

[NPT_2]

I have an office that I need switchports for 24 cubicals that need 2 network ports each with POE.  The problem is due to my cable path the switches need to be right at the cubicles themselves and they need to have no noise. 

The compact switches are quiet enough but in order to get the density I need I will have to use 4 3560C-12PC-S and they don't have stacking cables. 

My question is, is there a POE enabled switch that is larger than 12 ports or has stacking capabilities or is the 3560C-12PC-S or 2960C-12PC my only options?

No.  The 3560C-12PC or the 2960C-12PC are the only ones that are fanless.

You could try the Linksys (aka Cisco Small Business Switches).
