The LED indicator panel contains the following indicators:

Power (PWR) This indicator lights green when the switch is receiving power. Otherwise, it is off.

Link/Activity (green) This indicator lights up green when the port is connected to a Fast Ethernet or Ethernet station. If this indicator is blinking green, the Switch is transmitting or receiving data.

100 Mbps (green) This indicator lights up green when the port is connected to a 100-Mbps Fast Ethernet station. Otherwise, the LED is off when the port is connected to a 10-Mbps Ethernet station.

Twisted-Pair Ports

Twisted-pair ports support automatic MDI/MDIX crossover detection function gives true 'plug and play' capability without the need of confusing crossover cables or crossover ports.

With the Auto-MDI function, you just need to plug-in the network cable to the hub directly and no need to care if the
