4.3.2 LAN Port Status LEDs
Two LAN status indicators are located below the Ethernet port on the rear panel of the
SDM-8400 chassis (refer to
Table 4-1). These LEDs indicate the following:
•
LNK: Goes on when the LAN connection passes the Link Integrity test. In
addition, the LED color indicates the LAN speed:
- Amber: Link integrity at 100 Mbps
- Green: Link integrity at 10 Mbps
- Off: No link integrity signal detected.
•
ACT: Goes on (green) when there is activity on the LAN port (LAN traffic
transmitted or received).
4.3.3 LAN Cable
The Ethernet LAN port has an RJ-45 female connector to attach a LAN cable. Select a
standard LAN cable with RJ-45 connectors at both ends.
RJ-45
Connector for
Ethernet LAN
Port
The RJ-45 female connector marked ETH on the rear panel of the SDM-8400 provides a
physical LAN port for attachment to the local LAN hub (10/100Base-T, MDI connection).
