Green Technology Features

For information about configuring Green Technology features, see

"Configuring Port Characteristics" on page 483.

When the Energy Detect mode is enabled and the port link is down, the PHY

automatically goes down for short period of time and then wakes up to check

link pulses. This mode reduces power consumption on the port when no link

partner is present.

The switch supports the IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE)

Lower Power Mode, which enables both the send and receive sides of the link

to disable some functionality for power savings when the link is lightly loaded.

The switch displays the current power consumption of the power supply (or

power supplies). This information is available from the management

The PowerConnect 7024P and 7048P switches support PoE Plus. The PoE

Plus features do not apply to the other models in the PowerConnect 7000 Series.

For information about configuring PoE Plus features, see "Managing General

System Settings" on page 271."

The PowerConnect 7024P and 7048P switches support PoE Plus

configuration for power threshold, power priority, SNMP traps, and PoE

legacy device support. PoE can be administratively enabled or disabled on a

per-port basis. Power can also be limited on a per-port basis.
