Green IT
Protect the environment.
The IT industry is attaching growing importance to environment responsibility. We are committed to applying information technology in as sustainable a manner as possible and to minimise its environmental impact.
Many manufacturers now use the "green IT" label to promote their products, with generalised, more or less verifiable statements on low power consumption.
The world's data centres are indeed heavy consumers of power. So we welcome the initiative of some of our manufacturers to help data centres save on energy with products that consume less power.
Only if it is clear what power particular IT devices consume and to what extent their capacity is utilised can enterprises introduce genuine measures to save energy without jeopardising business operation.
Power management solutions, like backbone switches with extremely high port density, help minimise the number of systems required, reduce the footprints and cut power consumption.
