% BW usage meter

Green

Fluctuating

The meter indicates the percentage of bandwidth that the

 

 

 

hub is using. Because the hub can be connected to multiple

 

 

 

network segments, this meter represents the aggregate

 

 

 

load on the hub.

 

 

 

 

PORT STATUS LEDs

 

 

LEDs 1 through 8 show the status of the downlinks. LED 9

 

 

 

shows the status of the uplink.

ACTIVITY

Green

ON

The port is receiving data.

 

 

OFF

The port is not receiving data.

LINK

Green

ON

A connection exists between the port and the end node.

 

 

OFF

There is no connection between the port and the end node.

 

 

 

 

Hub operation LEDs

 

 

 

OVERTEMP

Amber

ON

The internal temperature exceeds 158 °F (70 °C).

RPS ON

Green

ON

The Advanced RPS is connected and turned on.

UNIT STATUS

Amber

ON

The hub is performing POST diagnostics. If the amber LED

 

 

 

remains lit for longer than 30 seconds, POST has failed or

 

 

 

the CPU has halted.

 

 

Flashing

An error has occurred.

 

Green

ON

The hub is operating normally.

 

 

Flashing

A firmware update is proceeding.

 

Amber/Green

Flashing

A firmware update error occurred. See “Troubleshooting”

 

 

 

in Appendix A.

PWR

Green

ON

The hub is receiving power.

RPS FAIL

Amber

ON

The Advanced RPS is connected, but a failure

 

 

 

condition exists.

PAUSE

Green

ON

The uplink port has received a pause frame. For an

 

 

 

explanation of pause frames, see “Flow Control” in

 

 

 

Chapter 1.

To verify that the UPS unit’s maximum wattage is not exceeded, calculate the total power consumption of all units connected to the Advanced RPS. If the result is less than 325 watts, your configuration is safe if the result is greater than 325 watts, then there are too many units connected to the Advanced RPS Page MAKING CONNECTIONS Table 3-1 Gigabit Ethernet Maximum Cable LengthsServers Power WorkgroupAggregating connecting to the network backbone.
