The front panel includes the following features:
• LEDs to the left support the top ports, LEDs to the right support the bottom ports
• 20 100/1000 Ethernet SFP ports
Table 19 describes the LEDs for the 20-port 100/1000 Ethernet module
100/1000 Ethernet ports
The 100/1000 Ethernet interface module contains 20 physical ports, through which you can
connect your router to other network routers at a speed of 100 Mbps or 1 Gbps.
You must insert an SFP-compliant fiber-optic transceiver (provided by Brocade) into a physical port.
SFP-compliant fiber-optic transceivers provide a physical medium-dependent (PMD) fiber interface
that can be used with either the LAN physical layer (PHY) or WAN physical layer (WAN PHY).
For a list of SFP optics supported by Brocade, refer to the latest version of the Brocade Optics
Family Data Sheet, available online in the following location:

TABLE 19 20-port 100/1000 Ethernet module LEDs
Position State Meaning
Below each Ethernet port.
(Left-side LED supports port in
top row. Right-side LED supports
port in bottom row.) On or blinking The port is transmitting and receiving packets.
Off for an extended period The port is not transmitting or receiving packets.
TABLE 20 20-port 10/100/1000 Ethernet module LEDs
LED Position State Meaning
Link or
Active Above the ports. The top
port LED is on the left side,
the bottom port LED is on
the right side. On (solid) A link is established with the remote port (with no traffic).
Blinking The port is transmitting and receiving packets.
Off A link is not established with the remote port and no traffic is
being passed.
