Introducing the all new CRS310-10G-RGB! This 2.5GB switch sneaks in a few fan favorites, namely a 12v NF-A4x20 Noctua PWM fan and RGB LEDs courtesy of an ESP8266 and WLED!
The heatsink on the chip is not placed correctly. It is lying on its side, but it should be with the sticky bottom on the chip. Mikrotki has some problem with this heatsink, in my model it was floating loosely in the casing. Prześlij opinię
RouterOS7 support MQTT protocol, the option to direct control of light from router. you can install mosquitto mqtt server on mikrotik container (ARM arch)
Might want to change the description as the fans is a 40mm. Also please add the model # of the fan. I want to purchase the fan just not the super quiet version.
Yep! Factory defect? It's not a very big heatsink, so it's still functional. I've considered removing both to swap for something from a laptop so I can quiet it down, but I have not found one that's compatible. That funky chip layout makes that a very custom design.
The transfer of heat into the metal is going to be mostly the same, even if it looks unusual. The bigger issue is that it doesn't look like it's covering the whole chip
NF-A4x20mm Noctua PWM fan, and leds were just random stuff i had kicking around. if you look at my other videos I think there is more details, but basically just an esp8266 flashed with wled connected to standard addressable RGB led strip, all of which I got off amazon.
I was looking for info of how noisy the stock fan is and found it here :) Since I want to install the switch close to my desk, fan mod is a must. I want to do some more modding and either install two 40mm fans or just cut a big hole on top and install quiet 120mm fan, that should blow more air even at low RPM. One thing about your particular switch - one of the radiators is installed in the wrong orientation - either a transport fault or assembly fault. Since radiators in this model use double sided heat transferring tape, this could happen. If you google for the motherboard pictures of the switch, both radiators should be installed in a standard orientation - base with the chip and fins to the top. I'm just wandering why and how yours got rotated 90deg :)
I wondered that myself! I considered putting a laptop heatsink on them to replace both heat sinks, just have not yet found a heat pipe and block that are wide enough and don't have the right tools to make my own block. Happy hacking!
@@jarenhavell I was thinking about 3D printing a top cover with a hole and mounting points for either 120x120x15mm fan inside or 120x120x25 standard fan on the top (since I won't be installing it in rack). I just don't know if there will be enough space inside. 120mm fan would push a lot more air volume while being virtually silent. It would also basically cover the whole board and SFP+ ports. If you use SFP+ -> RJ45 modules they can get really hot. This way I can always go back to original cover and fan and not lose my warranty :)
It's like covering a license plate. There is nothing your average person can do with the information, it cant be used with a reverse lookup without access to a private database, but we still instinctively try to cover for anonymity. good luck hacking me!
Default sticker password is only used when you reset the device to factory settings. RouterOS will make you change the password after first login. Mikrotik changed that fairly recently, because earlier devices were not password protected at factory settings levels (but you also needed to set the password at first connect). It's just added security level, because there were people that used MT devices as standard unmanaged switches without ever logging into RouterOS, even in office or large scale onsite networks and that was just asking for trouble.
That would be interesting. I'm not sure if you can run any custom code, but the WLED controller has an API- it can change color to a pre-defined preset using a very simple POST request. Very possible!
@@jarenhavell RouterOS7 can use http POST request (/tool/fetch command) and program requests from scheduller, Netwatch, traffic monitor, dhcp server/client and many others

Got mine yesterday, also thinking about putting a Noctua fan inside. Also love the idea of putting RGB into a switch.

Why did you do that?
The question is not why, but Why not?
cool
11:11 It looks like the heatsink on the left is mounted sideways. 😮

nice xD
Where the parts list and website you got the led gear from?

You covered the sticker on the manual so the default password won't show, but leaves the internal sticker, also with the password, out in the open.

Thats pretty cool. Next project is to make the colors change automatically based on the throughput on some ports? 😀

YOU ruined a Nice simple clean looking Switch :( RGB = BARF !!
You just jealous I did it first. 😏
@@jarenhavell NOPE! RGP. eww. Fan was a good idea tho.
Yeah, not a fan of RGB. However, you do have a nice setup and I enjoy watching intelligent people on UA-cam.

Oh no please don't hack me! 😂

@@jarenhavell it's easy, you only need to use the bridge and interface menus.
Sounds like a great opportunity to help everyone understand how easy it is. How about you make a video explaining it? 😁
