Page 10 - Gigabit Ethernet Technology; D-Link Green Technology
Gigabit Ethernet Technology Gigabit Ethernet is an extension of IEEE 802.3 Ethernet utilizing the same packet structure, format, and support for CSMA/CD protocol, full duplex, flow control, and management objects, but with a tenfold increase in theoretical throughput over 100-Mbps Fast Ethernet and ...
Page 11 - Front-Panel Components
If there is no link on a port, such as when there is no computer connected to the port or the connected computer is powered off, D-Link’s Green Technology will enter a "sleep mode", drastically reducing power used for that port. • Power saving by cable length: 0~20m, 21~100m. D-Link’s Green ...
Page 13 - Rear Panel Description
Rear Panel Description The power cable connection is located on the rear panel of the Switch. DC Power Jack: Power is supplied through an external 12V/1A AC power adapter for GO-SW-16G and an external 12V/1.5A AC power adapter for GO-SW-24G. Check the technical specification section for information ...
