8-Port Gigabit Easy Desktop Switch
GO-SW-8G
The GO-SW-8G 8-Port Gigabit Easy Desktop Switch is part
of D-Link’s new series of SOHO
devices that make use of D-Link’s Green Technology, providing energy savings, reduced heat,
and a longer product life without sacrificing performance or functionality. It provides eight
Gigabit ports for easy expansion of your network and a quick way to upgrade your network to
Gigabit connectivity. An energy-efficient power adapter (Energy Star Level VI qualified),
minimised the use of harmful substances (RoHS compliant), and recyclable packaging makes
this switch truly environmentally friendly.
Fast and Reliable Networking
The D-Link GO-SW-8G 8-Port Gigabit Easy Desktop Switch creates a blazing fast network for
your office, as its Gigabit Ethernet ports provide high-speed wired connections for up to eight
PCs or other devices. The GO-SW-8G also features QoS, which prioritises network traffic so
that time-sensitive data is delivered efficiently, even during bursts of high data traffic. Finally,
plug and play support makes setup a breeze.
Conserve Energy
The 8-Port Gigabit Easy Desktop Switch helps you conserve energy automatically through
several methods. The switch supports IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE) which cuts
down on power consumption during periods of low data activity and will proceed to put the
unused port into sleep mode, saving a substantial amount of power. It also adjusts the
amount of power supplied to a port according to the length of the connected Ethernet cable.
Environmentally-friendly
The 8-Port Gigabit Easy Desktop Switch was designed with the environment in mind and is
compliant with Energy Star Level VI, as well as with the stringent CEC and MEPS regulations
that require the use of energy efficient power adapters. The switch is also built to follow RoHS
standards to minimise the use of hazardous materials and uses recyclable packaging that
helps reduce waste, complying with the WEEE directive.
