Green Ethernet
The switch provides a Green Ethernet power saving feature on gigabit Ethernet
copper ports called Energy Detect Mode. This feature helps reduce chip power
by forcing a port PHY into a low-power mode when the signal from a copper link
partner is not present. (PHY is an abbreviation for the physical layer of the OSI
model.)
copper ports called Energy Detect Mode. This feature helps reduce chip power
by forcing a port PHY into a low-power mode when the signal from a copper link
partner is not present. (PHY is an abbreviation for the physical layer of the OSI
model.)
When the Energy Detect is enabled, the switch automatically enters the low-
power mode when energy on the line is lost, and it resumes normal operation
when energy is detected. When the port PHY is in low-power mode, the PHY
wakes up after a certain period of time, and sends link pulses to monitor for energy
from the link partner. If energy is detected while the port is in wake-up mode, the
switch returns the port to normal operation. When the wake-up period expires, the
port returns to low-power mode.

Energy Detect works whether the port has autonegotiation enabled or disabled,
and can be enabled or disabled by the administrator. The Energy Detect Mode
properties are configurable per-port.
