The PWR switches also have two LEDs per port. The Link status is always shown by the Link LED as with the non-PWR switches. The operation of the Mode LED is the same as the non-PWR switches. The difference is the PWR switches have an additional mode, and that is PoE. In PoE mode, the Link LED indicates the PoE configuration for the port: On if PoE is enabled on the port; Off if PoE is disabled on the port. The default view is Activity (Act).
