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 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 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 power consumption for ports that are not in use, resulting in max. 80% reduction in power consumption.
Power budget according to 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 required. 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 for compatibility and optimal performance.
* Maximum power savings compared to conventional TP LINK switches, actual savings may vary depending on usage conditions.
