Ethernet Switching Module (10BaseT 24 Port) LEDs

Each switching module (Prod # WS-X5013) contains a STATUS LED. When on, this LED indicates that the switching module is operational and is powered up. It does not necessarily mean that the interface ports are functional or enabled.

The LEDs on the faceplate of the Ethernet switching module (10BaseT 24 Port) are described in Table 7-2and shown in Figure 7-2.
