Of course 1U servers are the most extreme case. Having rackmount equipment at home is fine if you can put it out of the way and pay a bit of attention to what you buy - i.e. a 3U or 4U machine will usually have much more normal fans you can swap to quiet ones. Some people also swap fans on 1U switches. |

More seriously: most switches will survive fine without fans if you don't use them too intensely (see eg https://www.reddit.com/r/Cisco/comments/3iu57s/home_lab_swit...)
