The Switch's LEDs and ports are located on the front panel.
LEDs
System Green. The SYSTEM LED lights up to indicate that the Switch is powered on.
Link/Act Green. The LINK/ACT LED lights up to indicate a functional network link through the
corresponding port (1 through 8) with an attached device. It flashes to indicate that the
Switch is actively sending or receiving data over that port.
PoE Orange. The PoE LED lights up to indicate a device is connected utilizing Power over
Ethernet on the corresponding port (1 through 8).
Ports
1-8 The Switch is equipped with 8 auto-sensing, Ethernet network ports, which use RJ-45
connectors. The Fast Ethernet ports support network speeds of 10Mbps or 100Mbps.
They can operate in half and full-duplex modes. Auto-sensing technology enables each
port to automatically detect the speed of the device connected to it (10Mbps or 100Mbps),
and adjust its speed and duplex accordingly.
miniGBIC1/2 The mini-GBIC (gigabit interface converter) port is a connection point for a mini-GBIC
expansion module, so the Switch can be uplinked via fiber to another switch. Each
MiniGBIC port provides a link to a high-speed network segment or individual workstation at
speeds of up to 1000Mbps.
