1st LED: Green/Amber

•    Solid Green = Port linked operating at max port speed,

i.e. running 100GbE on QSFP28 port. Green (Luminance at 1.5ft = 45+5 cd/m2)

•    Flash Green (~30ms) = Port Activity operating at max port speed,

i.e. running 100GbE on QSFP28 port. Green (Luminance at 1.5ft = 45+5 cd/m2)

•    Solid Amber = Port linked operating at lower speed,

i.e. running 40GbE or 25GbE or 10GbE on QSFP28 port. Amber (Luminance at 1.5ft = 45+5 cd/m2)

•    Flashing Amber (~30ms) =Port Activity operating at lower speed,

i.e. running 40GbE or 25GbE or 10GbE on QSFP28 port. Amber (Luminance at 1.5ft = 45+5 cd/m2)

•    Off = No link
•    Flashing Amber with 1 sec on and 1 sec off – Port Beacon. Amber (Luminance at 1.5ft = 180+10 cd/m2)

All four LEDs shall be used when 4x25GbE mode or 4x10GbE mode is running on QSFP28 port.

•    Solid Green = 4x25GbE Link on QSFP28 port. Green (Luminance at 1.5ft = 45+5 cd/m2)
•    Solid Amber = 4x10GbE Link on QSFP28 port. Amber (Luminance at 1.5ft = 45+5 cd/m2)
•    Flashing (~30ms) Green = 4x25GbE Activity on QSFP28 port.
•    Green (Luminance at 1.5ft = 45+5 cd/m2)
•    Flashing (~30ms) Amber = 4x10GbE Activity on QSFP28 port.
•    Amber (Luminance at 1.5ft = 45+5cd/m2)
•    Off = No link
•    Flashing Amber with 1 sec on and 1 sec off – Port Beacon. Amber (Luminance at 1.5ft = 180+10 cd/m2)

Link/SPD LED

(Left bi-color LED)

•    Off – No Link
•    Solid green – Link on 1000Base-T
•    Solid Amber – Link on 10/100MBase-T

ACT LED

(Right single color LED)

•    Off – No Link
•    Blinking Green (~30ms) – Activity

Link/SPD LED

(Left bi-color LED)
