D-Link DES-810, DES-818 manual LED Indicators, Uplink Port

Note:	Full-duplex mode can only be used for
	connections to other switches or to network
	stations. Connections to hubs must use half-
	duplex mode only.

Uplink Port

The uplink port is used for higher-tier connections to more advanced switches or other network devices. Please note that if you are using the uplink port, you will be unable to use port one as these two ports are logically linked.

Note: A crossover cable must be used when connecting from the uplink of another switch or a hub to the uplink port on the 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch.

LED Indicators

The 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch has extensive LED indicators to facilitate monitoring and troubleshooting. They include a Power LED and Status LEDs for all ports. The Status LEDs have indicators that report on Link, Duplex, Activity, Collision and 100Mbps states.
