Power LED
The PWR LED indicates the power status of the Fast EtheRx switch. The LED will light up steady green when the AC power cord is connected to the unit from a power source and the power switch on the unit has been turned on.
100BASE-TX (100TX) LED
The 100TX LED will automatically light up when 100Mbps operation is detected. This LED will not light up if 10Mbps operation is detected.
LINK/ACT LED (for both 10 and 100Mbps)
The LINK/ACT LED uses a single LED to display two functions. A steady green light indicates that a good link has been established, and a flashing green light indicates when data is being received or transmitted. If the LED does not display solid green indicating a good link, check the following:
1.Make sure that the power is turned on for both the Fast EtheRx Switch and the attached device.
2.Verify that the drivers for the network adapter have been loaded on the PC. Some network adapters require that the driver be loaded before establishing a proper link.
