Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet Cards
The 10/100 Ethernet card, FE-GE card, and all versions of the transceiver-based Gigabit Ethernet
(GE, GE3, GE1020, and 10GE) cards provide two equipment LEDs at the top of the card to indicate current
card status and two facility LEDs for each port to indicate the status of the port; see Figure 5-4.
Figure 5-4 LEDs on Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet Cards
Table 5-8 lists the equipment LEDs, which indicate the current status of the card.
