Quiet in the terms of DC grade switching, I'm not sure you could get away with such a switch in a home environment. The 100G optics need plenty of airflow to keep cool so it's not just a case of swapping the fans for something smaller

You can use a 100g DAC within a single rack (which is also cheaper). I only have a tiny bit of 100g at home and just do 10g optics for the connection out of the rack. Of course, that's my weird setup and it won't work once I want 100g to my office.

The rack I’m referring to is in my home. YMMV, of course.
