Taipei, Taiwan, July 22, 2008 – D-Link, a leading provider of networking and communication solutions, announced that a total of 127 of their products have cleared the Energy Star certification. Currently 85 D-Link products have been listed in the official Energy Star Website; the other 42 D-Link products will be added by the end of July.

Wonder Wang, chief quality officer of D-Link headquarters said, “We are very glad that D-Link could surpass the stringent levels set by Energy Star and certify 127 products. We will include the Energy Star logo on our product packaging and on our website to make our customers aware that they represent energy-efficient products.”

D-Link will include the Energy Star logo on a wide range of popular D-Link products with external power adapters that include IP cameras, routers, wireless access points, switches, print servers, media players, IP phones, firewalls, KVM switches, video phones and DSL modems. All the 127 products met the criteria and performance levels to earn the Energy Star certification. On average, the adapters are 30% more efficient than the comparable models on the market. In addition they are lighter and smaller in size, which makes it easier to transport devices like laptops.

As of now, D-Link products that have earned the Energy Star are primary sold in North America. D-Link plans to meet Energy Star guidelines for all products to be shipped worldwide.
