Installing the Switch
Installation Procedure
•The Fault/Locator LED turns off when the self test completes.
When the self test completes successfully:
•The Power LED remains on.
•The Fault/Locator LED stays off.
• The port LEDs on the front of the switch go into their normal opera-
tional mode:
– If the ports are connected to active network devices, the Link/Act 
LEDs stay on or may be blinking to indicate port activity. The Spd 
LEDs turn on for 1000 Mbps links, blink for 100 Mbps links, or 
stay off for 10 Mbps links. On the PoE+ switches, the Mode LEDs 
behave according to the mode selected. In the default mode (Spd), 
the Mode LEDs should be on for 1000 Mbps links, blink for 100 
Mbps links, or stay off for 10 Mbps links.
– If the ports are not connected to active network devices, the Link/
Act and Spd LEDs will stay off.
If the LED display is different than what is described above, the self test 
has not completed correctly. Refer to 
“Troubleshooting”
 for diagnostic 
help.
