EEE
EnergyEfcientEthernet(EEE),anInstituteofElectrical
and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.3az standard,
reduces the power consumption of physical layer devices
during periods of low link utilization. EEE saves energy
by allowing PHY non-essential circuits shut down when
thereisnotrafc.
Network administrators have long focused on the energy

SwitchcomplieswiththeIEEE’sEnergy-EfcientEthernet
(EEE) standard to give you even more control. The EEE-
compliant Switch offers users the ability to utilize power
that Ethernet links use only during data transmission.
Lower Power Idle (LPI) is the method for achieving the
power saving during Ethernet idel time.
