Port Status Indicators

Associated with each 10Base-T (RJ45) network port are the two Port
status LEDs. These LEDs indicate whether the port is linked, receiving
data, or both. See Figure 5.

Note

A data packet is too fast for the human eye to distinguish on
an LED, therefore the LEDs will not reflect real-time activity.
The repeater artificially stretches the LED “on” time for easier
observation.

Figure 5: Port Indicators

Each RJ45 repeater port has two LEDs — LINK OK and Receive:

LINK OK

— No light—Link is not OK. If the polarity is incorrect, the

Link OK light is OFF until polarity is corrected by the
multiport repeater UTP port.

— Green (Steady)—Indicates a valid link.

Receive

— Amber (Flashing)—Link is OK, port is not partitioned and

there is activity on the port. Brief flashes indicate low traffic
levels.
