State Meaning
4 green LEDs Link = Indicates that the port LEDs are displaying link information. If the
port LED is on, the port is enabled and receiving a link indication from
the connected device. If the port LED is off, the port has no active network
cable connected, or is not receiving link beat or sufficient light. Otherwise,
the port may have been disabled through the switch console, the Web
browser interface, or HP TopTools. If the port LED is blinking*
simultaneously with the Fault LED, the corresponding port has failed its
self-test.
Act = Indicates that the port LEDs are displaying network activity
information.
FDx = Indicates that the port LEDs are lit for ports that are in full-duplex
mode.
Spd = Indicates that the port LEDs are displaying the connection speed at
which each port is operating. If the port LED is off, the port is operating
at 10 Mb/s. If the port LED is flashing**, the port is operating at 100 Mb/s,
and if the port LED is on continuously, the port is operating at 1000 Mb/s.
Green — ports 49 T = Indicates the 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 port is enabled.
and 50 only
M = Indicates the mini-GBIC port is enabled.

Port LED Problem
a
The interconnect is not plugged
into an active AC power source,
or the switch's power supply may
have failed.
a
An interconnect hardware failure
has occurred. All the LEDs will
stay on indefinitely.
a
The interconnect has experienced
a software failure during self-test.
a
One or both of the cooling fans
may have failed.
b
Blinking The network port for which the
LED is blinking has experienced
a self-test or initialization failure.
