The first of the Green Ethernet products the DGS-1024D provides 3 key benefits to end users through its cutting edge innovative eco-friendly technology Reduces power consumption & creates less heat Extended product life Reduces Operating Costs Power Savings by Number of Connected Ports and Link Status Computers do not require Internet access all the time; neither do switches utilize all ports at all times. When a computer or network equipment is shutdown, switches often remain on and continue to consume considerable amount of power. With Green Ethernet technology, D-Link switches can automatically detect link status and reduce power usage of ports that are idle. Computers or any connecting parties set to standby mode (not power off), however, will not provide significant power savings. Power Savings by Cable Length The Green Ethernet switches have the ability to analyze the length of any Ethernet cable connected to them for adjustment of power usage accordingly. Shorter lengths require less power. Overall Power Savings Per Day For a traditional switch, power consumption remains constant even when the ports are not in use. In a standard workday scenario where PCs are used for 10 hours a day and powered off 14 hours a day, and connected to the switch using 20 meter cables, D-Link's Green Ethernet can save up to 25%* power used for each system. Note: Switch uses switching power adapter. The cable length which PCs are connected to switch is 20m cables. Get the blazing speed of Gigabit Ethernet with the D-Link GigaExpress DGS-1024D, an 24-port 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Switch that delivers power, performance, and reliability in one cost-effective, space-saving design. Increase the speed of your network server and backbone connections, or make Gigabit to the desktop a reality. Power users in the office, workgroup, or creative production environment can now move large, bandwidth-intensive files faster. Transfer graphics, CGI, CAD, or multimedia files across the network instantly. The versatile and compact 1RU height design of the DGS-1024D enables the device to be rackmounted in a standard 19 inch rack, while conserving valuable rack space. Power-Packed It features a non-blocking switching architecture that filters and forwards packets at full wire-speed for maximum throughput. An 8K MAC address table provides scalability for even the largest networks. Address learning and aging, 802.3x Flow Control for full-duplex mode, and back pressure flow control for half-duplex mode alleviates traffic congestion and ensures reliable data transmission. Designed using industry standards, it is compatible with virtually all 10, 100, and 1000Mbps Ethernet devices and other vendor equipment. The D-Link DGS-1024D 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Switch protects your existing network investments while providing you with a straightforward migration path to faster Gigabit speeds. Easy to use The auto features of this gigabit switch make installation plug and play and hassle-free. No configuring is required. Auto MDI/MDI-X crossover on all ports eliminate the need for crossover cables or uplink ports. Auto-negotiation on each port senses the link speed of a network device (either 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps) and intelligently adjusts for compatibility and optimal performance. It also features diagnostic LEDs which display status and activity, allowing you to quickly detect and correct problems on the network. Every port also supports a cable diagnostic feature that helps to detect cable related problems. * Power savings may vary depending on products used. Maximum power savings when compared to a D-Link conventional switch. Uses up to 45% less energy when connected devices are powered down and up to 25% less energy when connected devices are used 10 hours and powered down 14 hours over a 24-hour period, when connected via 20 meter Ethernet cables. Green Ethernet features available on hardware version C1 or later.

I ordered one of these pages as part of a project to rack up and centralize my home network. Before I have multiple switches in series together in my basement. With the new D-Link switch, I could rack with some useful vertical rack arms and associated with a 24-port patch panel and cable management rack to get everything organized very well. Amazon description of this switch is obsolete. The current version of the product shows that the latter has 73% power efficient than comparable non-green D-Link switches. It is also noteworthy that the front plate on my device is a silver color, not the white face plate is held in the product photos. I turned this option on my workbench with a Kill-A-Watt power meter and with nothing else connected with this beast on port 24 is only 3 watts drinking with five gigabit devices are using a miserable 7 watts. Even fully loaded, according to the specifications will not use this option more than about 19 watts. The switch has features that will reduce energy consumption based on the remote device speed cable connection, and if the port is active or not. This means that you have a very robust network to build its own without running 24X7 show something that consumes too much energy. I was about to order the product however Netgear competitors (JGS524), the Netgear has two fans in the (noisy and prone to failure), where this option as D-Link fan! This is a big deal, because the fan is often the component that will have long-term leave with a product like this ... not the sound you get when you close the device name. The Netgear has a guarantee "for life" (and a better warranty), while the D-Link offers a warranty of 5 years, with no moving parts, and if hooked to the suppression of the peaks of high-quality D-Link box should take a very long time without problems. The performances are excellent with this option, I get rapid transit rockets across all my devices. And 'interesting to note that this is not a switch, if you can not break the network or VLAN to diagnose cable, etc., with this option. For its purpose if a network to provide super-fast home or small office that offers exceptional value. I highly recommend T! 18 of 18 people found this review helpful. Nice switch, high-speed S. Faulk I had to replace a Linksys that went south after only four months of service. Linksys wanted 5-7 days to replace the switch without rushing to get my system back if I paid a heavy price for delivery during the night and then would be in my office two days. I ordered the D-Link from Amazon, I had my network back up the next morning with super fast delivery from Amazon D-Link has been working perfectly and seems to be a little cooler and calmer after Linksys.

This unit replaces our older D-Link 10/100 Switch, which is still working after 6 years +. Absolutely no problems installing or using the switch again - it's very cool, link LED lights and the corresponding ports are easy to identify. Immediately noticed the increased speed on the local network and the connected equipment is also compatible with Gigabit Ethernet. Recommended if you do not need a managed switch. I note that Amazon photo for this unit is incorrect - the photo shown is of a larger unit.
