Quick Install Guide
D-Link Green Technology implements special power-saving features while using gigabit speeds that
detect cable length and link status, and will adjust power usage accordingly. Green Technology saves
energy in two specic ways:
1. If there is no link on a port (when there is no connection or the device connected is
turned o) the port(s) will enter a “sleep mode” which will drastically reduce the amount
of power used.
2. D-Link Green Technology detects the length of connected Ethernet cable and adjusts
power usage accordingly without aecting performance. This way, a port connected to
a 20m or under cable only uses as much power as it needs, instead of using full power,
which is only needed for 100m cables.
This product is IEEE 802.3az Energy Eciency Ethernet compliant. The IEEE 802.3az EEE standard denes
mechanisms and protocols intended to reduce the energy consumption of network links during periods
of low utilization, by transitioning interfaces into a low-power state without interrupting the network
connection.
Both connected devices must support 802.3az EEE for power saving support. If the connected device
does not support 802.3az EEE, the switch will default to D-Link’s Green Technology of power saving.

Power Indicator - This green indicator light is on when the Switch is receiving power; otherwise, it is o.
Link/Act - This LED indicator light is green when the port is successfully connected to an Ethernet
device and will blink as data is transmitted or received.
LEDs
Connecting the Switch
Step 1
Plug the supplied power adapter into the Switch and the other end into a power outlet, power strip,
or surge protector (recommended). Verify the Power indicator is lit on the Switch.
Step 2
Connect one end of an Ethernet cable in the device you want to connect to the Switch and the
other end into one of the Ethernet ports on the Switch. Check the Link lights (LEDs) on both the
Switch and the device to verify that the cable is good and that there is a valid connection.
