GO-SW-5GE & GO-SW-8GE
Think Green
The GO-SW-5GE/8GE 5-Port and 8-Port Gigabit Metal 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 sacricing performance
or functionality. An energy-ecient power adapter (EnergyStar Level V qualied),
minimized use of harmful substances (RoHS compliant), and recyclable packaging
make this switch truly environmentally friendly.
Conserves Energy
The GO-SW-5GE/GO-SW-8GE 5/8-Port Gigabit Metal Desktop Switch helps you conserve
energy automatically. The switch saves substantial amounts of power by cutting power
usage for unused ports or ports connected to computers that have been shut down.
