Ieee energy efficient ethernet (eee) compliance
The switch es-5500g v3 offers environmental efficiency with fast ethernet speeds critical for next-generation network applications. To comply with the ieee802.3az standard, the switch es-5500g v3 provides power saving functions to reduce energy consumption to help business save cost.

Inactive link detection:
when a network device is shut down and/or an inactive link is detected, the power usage adjustment feature automatically reduces power usage. The switch’s power consumption will be dynamically adjusted according to the link status and the number of active network devices.

Cable length detection:
devices equipped with this feature automatically detect the length of connected ethernet cables and adjust power usage accordingly. The shorter the cable length, the less power it consumes.

Supports high-speed networking and jumbo frames
The es-5500g v3 is an excellent solution to expand your gigabit network. With gigabit speed, the es-5500g v3 gives high flexibility and high bandwidth connectivity to servers, workstations and other attached devices. It enables you to save time when transferring large files. In addition, it also supports jumbo frames 9k to improve network utilization in large files transfer.

Supports auto-negotiation
Every port of the es-5500g v3 can automatically distinguish the connected network devices are running at 10mbps, 100mbps and 1000mbps for half/full-duplex mode . The es-5500g v3 can adjust the speed and mode accordingly.

Easy to use
The es-5500g v3 is plug-and-play and supports all kind of network protocols to make installation and network management easy and fast. Led indicators provide a quick and easy way to read port and switch information.

Optional power supply
The es-5500g v3 can be powered either through a pc’ s or any other devices’ usb port to eliminate the need for an additional power outlet, or through the ac power supply. (*usb power cable included. Requires 1a current-usb adapter not included.)
