Eee - EnGenius EWS Series User Manual

EEE

Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE), an Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.3az
standard, reduces the power consumption of physical layer devices during periods of low link utilization.
EEE saves energy by allowing PHY non-essential circuits shut down when there is no traffic.
Network administrators have long focused on the energy efficiency of their infrastructure, and the
EnGenius Layer 2 Switch complies with the IEEE's Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE) standard. The EEE
compliant Switch offers users the ability to utilize power that Ethernet links use only during data
transmission. Lower Power Idle (LPI) is the method for achieving the power saving during Ethernet ideal
time.
