ZYXEL CORPORATE
Green from Core to Edge
ZyXEL’s SME green networking solution is the
best green practice from core to edge. It creates
win-win results with comprehensive network
architecture plans.
Core Network
High performance and low latency are required
in core networks. Enterprise-class switches must
o er zero-loss throughput and low latency to
be serious contenders for corporate networks.
Enterprises also need to rein in their energy
costs to keep costs in check. It should emphasise
energy e ciency for enterprises.
• ZyXEL’s modular switch MS-7206 delivers
wirespeed throughput with very low levels of
latency using 192GbE ports, and it shows little
variability in power consumption when handling
variable tra c loads.
• The ZyWALL Uni ed Security Gateway series
provides high performance with green functions
like the integrated space cooling feature.
Edge Network
The devices in edge networks are usually generic
and massively deployed. The use of massive
devices has a considerable in uence on the
power consumption of networks. ZyXEL’s LAN
switches, wireless access points and IP phones
have a lower power consumption resulting in
signi cant cost savings.
Green IT Features
• Fans play an important role in energy consumption
since they are the key to heat dissipation.
ZyXEL’s LAN switches feature auto-temperature
detection and three fan speeds (quick, normal,
stop). When the ambient temperature is low,
the switches enter the stop mode to prevent
wasting power in unnecessary cooling.
• ZyXEL’s intelligent PoE provides 7W/15.4W with
auto-detection. When the power consumption
of an attached device is less than 7W, ZyXEL’s
intelligent PoE will reserve 7W instead of 15.4W.
For instance, if the power consumption of each
Reducing energy consumption and related green e orts can save costs, however there
are still many enterprises which hesitate to employ them because of two main challenges:
First trade-o s between performance and being green and lacking green networking
solutions from core to edge. ZyXEL’s SME green networking solution provides
comprehensive environment-savvy network architectures to improve energy
e ciency and performance and reduce costs. It also helps enterprises to gain
competitive advantage and retain environmental sustainability.
How to Save Costs With Green IT
power device is 7W (the average of IP phones
and wireless access points is 5 to 7W), the ZyXEL
PoE switch providing a total of 200W supports
as many as 28 devices (200W/7W).
• With ZyXEL’s IP telephony systems employees
working in home o ces can access business
telephone services such as voice mail and
conference calls, which can in turn reduce the
umber of business trips. It is convenient for
enterprises to introduce green, new ways of
communication.
Environmental Sustainability
ZyXEL has obtained certi cations for meeting ISO
9001, TL 9000, ISO 14001 and QC 08000 standards.
To uphold its role as a responsible corporate
citizen, ZyXEL strives to maintain minimal raw
material consumption, maximum pollution
prevention and e cient risk management by
following the PDCA work ow. ZyXEL promotes
environmental and professional safety with an
integrated and e ective monitoring system, a
system under constant improvement, to meet
every possible need.
ZyXEL does not only make its operations fully
comply with the three EU directives – WEEE
(Waste Electronics and Electrical Equipment),
RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) and
the recent EuP (Eco-Design Requirements for
Energy Using Products) – but also enforces the
policy when working with suppliers. In order to
implement the “green management” standard,
ZyXEL’s management has built up a unique
“Green Collaboration System” to monitor all
“cradle to grave” stages such as material supply,
manufacturing, assembly, transportation and
the use and decommission of its products for
environmental care.
