Each port has an Full and Half Duplex (F/H) Activity, (ACT) LED indicating packets being received and a Link (LK) LED indicating proper connectivity with the remote device when lit

5.2.12b GBIC-LXSC Gigabit fiber (1000Mb), multi-mode SC Connector

The Magnum GBIC-LXSC is a single-mode Gigabit fiber connector equipped with SC type connectors and can be easily snapped in and out. The Gigabit fiber ports are most popular as server-to-switch and switch-to-switch applications. It supports cable distances up to the IEEE 802.3z standard 1000Mbps distance limits, i.e., 10,25, 40 or 70Km at full duplex, and depend upon the Gigabit modules used.
