Table 2 describes the LED combinations of the hub “Media
Adapter” LED and the redundant fiber media adapter LEDs.

Remote Signaling

The BayStack 10BASE-FL RDN Media Adapter supports remote
signaling to indicate a far end receiver failure/remote fault
detection. Bay Networks uses a proprietary version of remote
fault signaling, because remote signaling is not specified in the
IEEE 802.3 10BASE-FL standard. Remote signaling is used to
verify the connection status of both the transmit and receive
fibers.

A Rem LED on the media adapter indicates remote signaling
status. For more information about this LED, see “LEDs” earlier
in this guide.

Green

Green

Standby link in a redundant pair; link status
is good, and remote link is good.

Amber

Green

Amber Standby link in a redundant pair is

partitioned or not ready; remote link is good,
but port is partitioned by detection of a local
fault (or possibly network management).

Amber

Amber Amber Standby link in a redundant pair is

partitioned for remote fault; check Tx link.
