GS752TXS and GS728TXS Smart Switches Green Ethernet Detail Use this screen to view detailed per-port Green Ethernet information and to enable or disable Green Ethernet settings on a single port. Using the Green Ethernet features allows for power consumption savings.  To configure Green Ethernet mode settings for a port: 1. Click System  Management  Green Ethernet  Green Ethernet Detail. The Port Green Mode Statistics screen displays. 2. From the Interface list, select the interface to configure. 3. Enable or disable the Green Ethernet features for the port: • Auto Power Down Mode: When this mode is enabled and a port link is down, the PHY will automatically go down for short period of time, and then wake up to check link pulses. This will allow performing auto negotiation and saving power consumption when no link partner is present. • Short Cable Mode: When this mode is enabled and the port link is up and operating at the 1 Gbps speed, the cable length test is performed. If the length of the cable is less than 10m, PHYs are put into low power mode so enough power is used to support a short cable. The EEE and the Short Cable modes are not intended to be active simultaneously. 51
