The connectors on Avid's Digital Snake cable are color coded, so that the white cable connects to the white-outlined ports.
When the system is powered up, the primary snake connection is indicated by a solid Active LED. If the Snake Signal LEDs flash,

If there are problems with the Snake connection, double check that all the BNC connectors are fully secured.
