Status information about energy consumption

According to the ecological design requirements of Directive 2009/125/EC on products relevant to energy consumption, the TC Bar complies with the following standard(s) or document(s): Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/826.

The TC Bars are classified as follows:
  • TC Bar S: LoNA (networked device)
  • TC Bar M: networked device with HiNA functionality
Depending on the network activity and time, the TC Bar switches to the following eco mode:
  • After less than 20 minutes, the TC Bar switches to a network standby mode with the following consumption values, as long as none of the connected network interfaces (Ethernet, USB-C, Bluetooth®, Wi-Fi) is in use, although the Bluetooth® and Wi-Fi functions may be activated:
    • TC Bar S: ≤ 2.00 W
    • TC Bar M: ≤ 2.00 W (unless an Ethernet port is connected)
    • TC Bar M: ≤ 7.00 W (as long as at least one Ethernet port is connected)

  • After a maximum of 2.5 hours of inactivity of all connections, the TC Bar switches to standby mode (consumption: ≤ 0.50 W).
