Front Panel
The figure below shows the front panel of the DES-105/108.
DES-105/108 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet Switch
Power/LED:
This green indicator light is on when the DES-105/108 is receiving
power; otherwise, it is off.
100Mbps Link/Activity, 10Mbps Link/Activity Indicator
100 Link/Act (green):
There are two LED indicators for each Ethernet port. The port LEDs
indicate a network link through the corresponding port. Blinking
indicates the Switch is either sending or receiving data to the port.
When the port LED glows in green, it indicates the port is running on
10M or 100M.
Auto MDI/MDI-X Ports:
All ports support automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover detection.
The AutoMDI/MDI-X function makes it simple to connect to the
switch—just plug either a Crossover or Straight-Through CAT5 cable
into any port.
