Description

 

Power

Solid GREEN to indicate the unit is powered on.

Link

(Active Green) Solid green (ON) to indicate that the 
end-to-end VDSL link between the Ethernet 
Extenders is established. The LINK LED is OFF 
when the link is down.

QOL

(Active Yellow) Flashes YELLOW to indicate the proces-
sor is correcting an error in the data thus preventing the 
transmission of corrupted data to the Ethernet port. The 
more error corrections, the more often the LED blinks. If 
the light remains lit continuously, it means that the line is 
noisy—although the data at the Ethernet port remains 
uncorrupted. Further impairment of the line however, 
risks having the line fail, as indicated by the green Link 
LED extinguishing.

Ethernet Link

(Active Green) Solid Green indicates that 
10/100Base-T Ethernet link has been established.

Ethernet Activity

(Active Yellow) Flashes yellow to indicate Ethernet 
activity on the Ethernet Extender’s 10/100Base-T 
Ethernet port.
