TORRANCE, CA--(Marketwire - January 8, 2010) - TRENDnet, a best-in-class wired and wireless
networking hardware brand, today announces the launch of the 8-Port Gigabit
GREENnet™ Switch, model TEG-S80Dg, which features TRENDnet's embedded
power saving GREENnet™ technology.
GREENnet™ is a TRENDnet switch-based technology that determines and
supplies the appropriate amount of electrical power to each hardwired
switching port as required by the connected device, by the port, or by the
length of the connected Ethernet cable. GREENnet™ technology can reduce
port-based power consumption by up to 70%.
GREENnet™ solutions automatically detect if an Ethernet port is not in
use and will reduce the amount of power sent to the respective unused port.
A port may not be in use when either no device is connected to the port, or
when the device that is connected to the port is powered down or in Standby
mode. Less power is required to send data over shorter cable lengths.
GREENnet™ technology automatically detects the length of respective
connected cables and adjusts the power supply accordingly. GREENnet™
technology functions automatically, requires no management, and has no
effect on product performance.
The 8-Port Gigabit GREENnet™ Switch, model TEG-S80Dg, boosts efficiency
and eliminates network congestion with a total switching capacity of 16Gbps
with Full-Duplex mode support for all eight Gigabit Auto-Negotiation RJ-45
ports. The device offers a convenient built in power supply, simple Plug
and Play installation, diagnostic LEDs convey port status, and Jumbo Frame
support transfers more data in less time. The TEG-S80Dg comes with a five
year limited warranty and will be available from TRENDnet's online and
retail partners this month. The MSRP for the TEG-S80Dg is US $49.99.
"TRENDnet has released 14 products with integrated GREENnet™ power
saving technology over the last 12 months," stated Zak Wood, Director of
Global Marketing for TRENDnet. "An additional 10 GREENnet products are
scheduled for launch in 2010. Our actions support our commitment to develop
network hardware solutions that help reduce our carbon footprint."
