Dual-Purpose Port Leds; Cable Guard For The Catalyst 2960-8Tc-L, 2960G-8Tc-L, And 2960Pd-8Tt-L Switches; Rear Panel Description - Cisco Catalyst 2960 Hardware Installation Manual

Chapter 1 Product Overview

Dual-Purpose Port LEDs

The LEDs on a dual-purpose port show whether an RJ-45 connector is connected to the port, or if an SFP
module is installed in the slot. See the example in
10/100/1000 port through the RJ-45 connector or as an SFP module, but not both at the same time. The
LEDs show how the port is being used (Ethernet or SFP module).
The LED colors have the same meanings as described in
