And what will happened if temperature is high ? how the switch will behave?

I am facing abnormal behavior issues like one of the switches stopped proving POE, and other switch was dead.

The normal temprature for a fortigate device is between 32 to 42 degree. This seems to be higher.  DO you  see a warning or alert is generated. Because fortiswitch generates alert once temp reaches threshold.

@rosatechnocrat no working alert but some unnormal behavior 

Like issue with POE port stopped providing POE and we have to reboot the switch to fix
