green.
Link indicator is green, and activity indicator is off.
Link indicator is amber, and activity indicator is off.
Link indicator is blinking green, and activity is off.
Power supply unit indicator codes
AC power supply units (PSUs) have an illuminated translucent handle that serves as an indicator.
The indicator shows whether power is present or if a power fault has occurred.

Condition
The NIC is connected to a valid network at less than its maximum port
speed, and data is being sent or received.
The NIC is connected to a valid network at its maximum port speed,
and data is not being sent or received.
The NIC is connected to a valid network at less than its maximum port
speed, and data is not being sent or received.
NIC identify is enabled through the NIC configuration utility.
Condition
A valid power source is connected to the PSU, and the PSU is operational.
Indicates a problem with the PSU.
Power is not connected to the PSU.
When the firmware of the PSU is being updated, the PSU handle blinks green.
CAUTION:
Do not disconnect the power cable, or unplug the PSU when updating
firmware. If firmware update is interrupted, the PSUs do not function.
When hot-plugging a PSU, the PSU handle blinks green five times at a rate of 4 Hz and
turns off. This indicates a PSU mismatch concerning efficiency, feature set, health status, or
supported voltage.
CAUTION:
If two PSUs are installed, both the PSUs must have the same type of
label; for example, Extended Power Performance (EPP) label. Mixing PSUs from
previous generations of PowerEdge servers is not supported, even if the PSUs
have the same power rating. This results in a PSU mismatch condition, or failure
to turn on the system.
CAUTION:
When correcting a PSU mismatch, replace only the PSU with the
blinking indicator. Swapping the PSU to make a matched pair can result in an
error condition and unexpected system shutdown. To change from a high output
configuration to a low output configuration or conversely, you must turn off the
system.
CAUTION:
AC PSUs support both 240 V and 120 V input voltages except for
Titanium PSUs, which support only 240 V. When two identical PSUs receive
