From the Manufacturer

The D-Link DES-1024A 24-Port 10/100 Switch is part of D-Link’s new series of SOHO devices that make use of D-Link’s Green Technology, providing energy savings, reduced heat, and a longer product life without sacrificing performance or functionality. An energy-efficient power adapter (EnergyStar Level V qualified), minimized use of harmful substances (RoHS compliant), and recyclable packaging make this switch truly environmentally friendly.

The DES-1024A offers an economical way for SOHO and small to medium businesses (SMB) to benefit from high-speed networking. It provides twenty-four ports for easy expansion of your network and a quick way to upgrade your network to Fast Ethernet connectivity.

The DES-1024A 24 Port 10/100 Switch helps you conserve energy through IEEE802.3az EEE, which works when both the switch and its link partner are EEE-compliant devices. This power saving feature automatically puts the switch into a low-power idle state when the switch utilization is zero, allowing you to lower your energy usage and save on your energy costs.

The DES-1024A was designed with the environment in mind, and is compliant with Energy Star Level V, as well as with the stringent CEC and MEPS regulations that require the use of energy efficient power adapters. The switch is also built to follow RoHS standards to minimize use of hazardous materials, and uses recyclable packaging that helps reduce waste, complying with the WEEE directive. Its innovative design lets it run cool and quiet.
