The DGS-1008G 8-Port Gigabit Switch from D-Link is part of a new series of 'green' devices using D-Link Green technology. Created with the small or home office user in mind, this switch saves energy while reducing heat output, providing you a longer product life without sacrificing operational performance or functionality.

Think Green
Partnered with an efficient power adapter that is EnergyStar Level V qualified, the DGS-1008G minimizes use of harmful substances (RoHS compliant) within and is enclosed in recyclable packaging, making this switch truly environmentally friendly.
Conserves Energy
The DGS-1008G 8-Port Gigabit Switch helps you conserve energy automatically through several methods. It automatically powers down ports that have no link activity, allowing the switch to save energy by cutting power usage for unused ports or ports connected to computers that have been shut down. It can also detect connected cable lengths and adjust power usage accordingly, helping you save energy without effecting networking performance.

                                Comments about D-Link DGS-1008G 8-Port Gigabit Desktop Switch:

                                If you have more than 4 wired devices and want to keep the higher speeds provided by your Gigabit router, this switch is a must. Great product for its price.
