Suggestions for *quiet* Infiniband switch?

Does anyone have suggestions for a quiet Infiniband switch, suitable for home use?

 

Preferably 8+ CX4 ports (can be 16, 24, 30+, etc), DDR and is fairly quiet.  Fanless - or close to - would be awesome.

 

Asking because a few years ago I bought a Topspin/Cisco SFS 7000 on eBay.  Similar to the one here now (no, I'm not the vendor and I don't know the guy):

But the thing was SO incredibly noisy it was nearly useless.  Couldn't leave it turned on in the same house at all.  Extremely audible several rooms away, through multiple walls + closed doors, etc.

 

Not wanting to repeat the same mistake again, as I set up a new home testing lab.
