This article provides instructions on how to configure the system time settings on your switch through the Command Line Interface (CLI). The Cisco Small Business Switches support Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP), and when enabled, the switch dynamically synchronizes the device time with time from an SNTP server. Summary: How to set clock time, date, time zone, daylight savings change, and NTP for MDS switches.

This piece explores actionable 2025 mitigation strategies, including engineered acoustic enclosures, low-ECM fans, vibration damping, and predictive noise modeling. Sound Power Level (LWA) is the acoustic energy emitted by a source which produces a Sound Pressure Level (LPA) at some distance. Battery energy storage systems can create noise from inverters, transformers, and cooling equipment that run during charging, discharging, and temperature control. If that sound reaches nearby homes, businesses, or property lines, it can lead to complaints, permitting delays, or added requirements. BESS units primarily emit noise from their cooling systems, but balance of system (BOS) components like inverters and transformers. This article examines the noise issues associated with BESS facilities and the noise control measures available to ensure they comply with local noise limits.
