Heat source? We use a UPS. The enclosures are cold, but not as cold as
the outside air and we have not had a problem using indoor rated Cisco
switches (even in our recent -19 weather). We do use fans for cooling
during other seasons. But, we have had fans die and open the box to
discover an estimated 110-130 degree weather while the switches kept on
humming along. Not recommended, but that has been our experience. In
fact, I do not recall a single Cisco switch going bad at a tower site
using this setup, just one or two ports. All these switches have been
ebay buys.

We've been running a Cisco WC2955T-12 outside in an unheated
enclosure (Northern New Mexico) for about three years with a hiccup.
It is only has twelve ports, but is 24 VDC and good to -10C. Also has
a DIN mount. Think I found it used on line for about $800.

How much are you looking to spend? direct DC switches are often
very expensive, same for lower temp range ones. It may be cheaper
to put a heater in an enclosure and run an indoor switch.

These all look like indoor switches to me, are they OK at -20 or
-30 C?
Was hoping for outdoor rated and DC power, this box already has
24v and 48v power.
My issue with the CRS is it only apparently supports STP on a
bridge interface which is CPU throughput limited. Also the switch
functionality seems about half finished currently.

Not sure if it's "outdoor temp rated", but for
the price of an HP 1810-24G v2 (around $250),
you really can't go wrong. Very good feature
sets, excellent prices.

I am trying to set up a VLAN trunk between our
office and tower over a 60ghz gigabit link. I
want to have all the tower APs and backhauls
plugged in to a port at the tower and have them
show up on a matching port in the office, one
VLAN per port.
I tried to do this with one of the new Mikrotik
CRS but the configuration is incredibly clunky
and I can't get it working. They also seem to
be missing a few key features like STP.
I need a switch that has:
tag/untag traffic on access ports
run STP/RSTP on two trunk ports for a primary
and backup wireless link
1 or preferably more SFP ports (gigabit link is
fiber interface)
min 16 copper gige ports
outdoor temperature rated
prefer runs on DC power
Any suggestions? I've not done much with
managed switches and VLANs before, so no idea
what is out there.
Thanks
