Description of the LEDs on ROUTER 1-PORT SERIAL SIC panel

 

LINK 

OFF means no link is present; ON means a link is present. 

ACT 

OFF means no data is being transmitted or received; blinking means data is being 
received or/and transmitted.   

 

2.2.5  Interface Cable

 

ROUTER 1-PORT SERIAL SIC interface cables are synchronous/asynchronous serial 
interface cables that fit into four types:

 

z

z

 

V.24 (RS232) DCE cable, with DB25 (female) connector at the network end;

 

z

 

V.35 DTE cable, with 34PIN (male) connector at the network end;

 

z

 

V.35 DCE cable, with 34PIN (female) connector at the network end.
