Choose green with your ethernet.
You can now choose green when upgrading to a gigabit network! This next-generation TL-SG1008D 8-Port Gigabit Desktop Switch incorporates the latest innovative energy-efficient technologies that can greatly enhance your network capacity while consuming less power. It automatically adjusts power consumption based on link status and cable length to minimize your network's carbon footprint.
No power for unused ports
When a computer or network equipment is turned off, the corresponding port of 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 up to 80% reduction in power usage.
Power budget based on cable length
Typically, shorter cables 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 needed. Auto MDI/MDIX eliminates the need for crossover cables. Auto-negotiation on each port detects 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.
