 Communications Infrastructure
As more of the world’s population shares files, photos and video, networking and data centers are growing exponentially. Increasingly, new wireless technologies are driving higher data rates and requiring unprecedented power consumption. National’s energy-efficient solutions enable routers, switches, wireless base stations, modems and DSL equipment to consume less power and generate less heat. PowerWise solutions address rising energy costs and customer demand for "greener" operations.
Alternative Energy
 For 50 years, National has been known for its reliable energy efficiency and power management products. It now brings that knowledge, experience, and capacity to bear on making solar products for the real world. Small amounts of shade and debris aff ect the efficiency of solar panels. National’s solar power management products increase solar efficiency in real world conditions and restore that efficiency. National’s SolarMagicTM technology improves solar power generation by recapturing up to 50 percent of lost energy in shaded conditions.
