Table 3-2 describes the 4-Port 10 Gigabit Ethernet modular port adapter LEDs.

2-Port 10 Gigabit Ethernet Modular Port Adapter

The 2-Port 10 Gigabit Ethernet modular port adapter provides two cages for XFP Ethernet optical
interface modules that operate at a rate of 10 Gbps. The two XFP modules can be 10-Gigabit Ethernet
multimode or single mode connections.
Each XFP cage on the 2-Port 10 Gigabit Ethernet modular port adapter has an adjacent Link LED visible
on the front panel. The Link LED indicates the status of the associated XFP port, as described in
Table 4-4.
Refer to Figure 3-4 for an example of the 2-Port 10 Gigabit Ethernet modular port adapter.
