Energy Consumption of Residential and Professional Switches

Abstract: Abstract-Precise evaluation of network appliance energy consumption is necessary to accurately model or simulate the power consumption of distributed systems. In this paper we evaluate the influence of traffic onto the consumption of electrical power of four switches found in home and professional environments. First we describe our measurement and data analysis approach, and how our results can be used for estimating the power consumption when knowing the average traffic bandwidth. Then we present the measure… Show more

“…Hlavacs et al [Hlavacs et al 2009] use linear regression to model the relation between the measured power consumption and the injected traffic in typical residential and professional switches. Some results are surprising: the Netgear residential switch (Netgear FS608v2, 8 ports) consumes less energy under high bandwidth values, and the 3Com professional switch (3Com 3824, 24 ports) achieves the optimum ratio between energy consumption and bandwidth when operating between 100 and 1000 kbit/s.…”

“…This step is a form of allocation that is supposed to provide an apportioning of a flow with a significant environmental impact (here energy consumption) between multiple outputs (here all Internet connections world-wide) when necessary. Because energy consumption in network devices is highly inelastic [16], [17], the energy intensity should not be used for change-oriented assessments of energy footprints.…”

“…At the network level, initial works investigated the energy consumption at the hardware level, trying to correlate between network activity and energy spent [20]. Results show that the traffic has little influence on the power consumption compared to the actual switch on of modules or plugs in the switches and routers.…”
