What does energy efficient Ethernet do?

Best answer by SURFboard Moderator

During periods of low data activity, Energy Efficient Ethernet allows for less power consumption by 50% or more while retaining full compatibility with existing equipment. When Energy Ethernet Efficient is enabled, it will consume less power during periods of low data activity. 

Could you help us with the product’s model number to assist you further ?
