This switch saves energy and reduces heat, which in turn extends its product life without sacrificing performance or functionality.
The switch supports IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE) which can detect when a connected computer is shut down or when there is no Ethernet traffic, and will proceed to power down the idle port, saving a substantial amount of power. In addition, the switch can also save energy by detecting the length of cable connected to a port and use only as much power as is required. Both of these features work together to help you save power automatically.
Its sturdy metal housing ensures the product can withstand wider operating by helping to dissipate heat and reduce stress on internal components.
