3. Hold the handle on the transceiver and pull the transceiver out of the slot.
Replace the dust plug on the slot if you are not installing a transceiver. The
dust plug protects hardware from dust contamination.

1.10.3 Network Device Validation

Advantech industrial Ethernet switches support 10/100BaseT or 10/100/1000BaseT on
the RJ45 (copper) ports and 100BaseFX or gigabit Ethernet on the fiber optic ports. Make
sure the devices are connected to the corresponding ports for proper operation.

1.10.4 Validating Connectivity

It is important to ensure all devices are connected correctly to the switch. Once all Ethernet
and fiber cabling is connected, inspect the LED corresponding to connected cable. The LED
displays a solid or blinking light. Any LED that is off signifies a connectivity issue. Inspect the
port connection and the associated networked device. For further LED information see Sys-
tem LED Panel on page 12 and Activity and PoE LED Panel on page 13.
