Twisted Pair Port LEDs and the LED Mode Select Button
This section applies to the AT-8524M, AT-8524POE, AT-8550GB, and
AT-8550SP switches.
The port LEDs on the front panel display port status information. Each
port has two LEDs. One of the LEDs displays the status of the link
between a port and its end node. The second LED, labeled MODE,
displays a variety of status information, depending on the switch model.
You use the Mode Select button on the front panel to toggle the Mode
LEDs to display different status information. The LEDs next to the Mode
Select button indicate the status being displayed by the port Mode LEDs.
Note
Toggling the Mode Selection button does not affect the normal
operations of the switch.
Table 2 describes the LEDs for the 10/100Base-TX twisted pair ports on
the AT-8524M, AT-8550GB, and AT-8550SP switches.
