Green networks? D-Link makes it so with their new Green Initiative Wi-Fi Internet routers.

These new routers use a number of technologies to save energy (up to 41%), most of them revolving around how power usage is regulated in the devices:

The Wi-Fi routers integrate D-Link(R) Green Ethernet(TM) technology, an innovative energy-saving technology that automatically detects link status and network cable length, then adjusts power accordingly. The D-Link routers also feature Wi-Fi scheduling that allows customers to easily program when the Wi-Fi radio signals are turned on and off to further save energy consumption. Now shipping and incorporating the Green technology are the D-Link Xtreme N Gigabit Router (DIR-655), D-Link Xtreme N Duo(TM) Media Router (DIR-855), and the D-Link Xtreme N Gaming Router (DGL-4500).

 

“D-Link is working to take the lead in integrating innovative, power-saving technology into our home and business networking solutions that doesn’t sacrifice performance or functionality,” said Steven Joe, president and CEO of D-Link Systems, Inc. “By offering green upgrades to some of our most popular Wi-Fi routers, we’re helping protect the environment while our customers save money in the process.”
