Product Highlights Think Green
The GO-SW-5G/8G 5-Port and 8-Port Unmanaged Gigabit 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 sacricing performance
or functionality. An energy-ecient power adapter (EnergyStar Level V qualied),
minimized use of harmful substances (RoHS compliant), and recyclable packaging
make this switch truly environmentally friendly.
Conserves Energy
The GO-SW-5G/GO-SW-8G 5/8-Port Unmanaged Gigabit Switch helps you conserve
energy automatically. The switch saves substantial amounts of power by cutting power
usage for unused ports or ports connected to computers that have been shut down.
• Economical yet innovative fanless design runs
cool and quiet
• Gigabit ports allow you to connect all your
devices for fast file transfers and smooth
media streaming
• Reduced energy consumption without sacrificing
performance EEE compliance
5/8 Port Unmanaged Gigabit Switch

GO-SW-5G & GO-SW-8G 5/8 Port Unmanaged Gigabit Switch
Environmentally Friendly
The GO-SW-5G/GO-SW-8G 5/8-port Gigabit Unmanaged Switch 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
ecient 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.
Gigabit Connection for Home and SOHO
The GO-SW-5G/GO-SW-8G oers an economical way for SOHO and small to
medium businesses (SMB) to benet from the increased bandwidth of Gigabit
Ethernet. It provides ve/eight Gigabit ports for easy expansion of your network
and a quick way to upgrade your network to Gigabit connectivity.
