Link indicator
This green LED reflects the status of the physical Ethernet connection between the XCU and
the device at the other end of the Ethernet cable (typically a switch). It lights when the
following conditions are met:
– both devices are powered up;
– both devices have enabled their Ethernet ports;
– Ethernet cable is wired correctly and inserted securely at both ends and
– both devices agreed on Ethernet settings (baud rate, and full/half duplex).
Activity indicator
This green indicator flashes continuously when data is being exchanged.
Before you remove or insert an SFP+ module, read the safety information in the “Fiber-optic
transmission units” on page 8 of this guide.
