D-Link Green Technology
The brand-new DGS-1016D and DGS-1024D switches are green by design with IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet compliant
(abbreviated as EEE) and D-Link Green Technologies. This allows significant power saving during periods of low data activity.
In most environments, switches are idle 90% or more of the time. If there has been no network traffic over a short period of
time, ports on DGS-1016D/DGS-1024D switch will change to power saving mode automatically. Upon receiving a packet, the
switch wakes up the effected port or ports, returning to normal functionality immediately. By using EEE compliant devices,
such as PCs and servers, the network can save energy without compromising any performance. Even when connecting to
legacy devices which do not support IEEE 802.3az, D-Link Green Technologies can reduce power consumption by changing
the power state of the link.
Power Saving Technology
This switch supports power saving by link status. If there is no link on a port, such as when there is no computer connected to
the port or the connected computer is powered off, D-Link's Green Technology will enter a "sleep mode", drastically reducing
power used for that port.
