Choose green with your Ethernet.
You can now choose to be green when upgrading to a gigabit network! This new generation TL-SG1008D 8-port Gigabit desktop switch features the latest innovative energy-efficient technologies that can significantly increase your network capacity while using less power. It automatically adjusts power consumption according to the link status and cable length to limit the carbon footprint of your network.
No power for unused ports
When a computer or network equipment is off, the corresponding port on a traditional switch continues to consume significant amounts of power. The TL-SG1008D can automatically detect the link status of each port and reduce the power consumption of unused ports, resulting in a max. 80% reduction in power usage.
Power budget according to cable length
Shorter cables typically consume less power due to lower power loss over the length of the cable; this is not the case with most devices.
Easy to use
The automatic features of this gigabit switch make installation plug-and-play and hassle-free. No configuration is necessary. Auto MDI/MDIX eliminates the need for crossover cables. Auto-negotiation on each port senses the link speed of a network device (10, 100, or 1000 Mbps) and intelligently adjusts compatibility and optimal performance.
* Maximum power savings compared to conventional TP LINK switches, actual savings may vary depending on usage conditions.
