LED Indicators (ISA Version) 

The McPC 10/100 features four diagnostic LEDs.  The following are the LED functions 
on the twisted pair port: 
 

               Crossover/Pass-                    TX Link                                                               TX 100 Mbps Activity LED              

            

               Through Switch                         

         TX Activity                                   Link Fault Detection LED                 FX 100 Mbps  

                                                                                                                                                                                            Active LED

Twisted Pair Port 

Green when the unit has power 

AN 

Green when Auto Negotiation mode is enabled 

LFD 

Green when Link Fault Detection is enabled 

100 

Yellow when a 100 Mbps connection is detected 

 

NOTE 

This feature is only available when either 

Force 10

 or 

Force 100

mode is enabled. 

For more on this feature, see the Link Fault Detection LED Activity section, below.

 
Fiber Port 

LNK 

Green when a twisted pair link is established 

ACT 

Yellow when activity is detected on the port 

100 

Yellow when a 100 Mbps connection is detected 

Link Fault Detection LED Activity (ISA Version) 

When LFD is enabled and a fault occurs on a segment of the media conversion, the 
various Link LEDs in that conversion will either blink or extinguish.  LEDs may react 
differently depending on the type of end devices in the conversion, whether the 
McPC 10/100 is in 

Force 10

 or 

Force 100

 mode, where the fault occurs, etc.  For 

questions, please contact Technical Support. 
 

NOTE 

Twisted pair AND fiber optic cables must be connected, and the twisted pair 

crossover/pass-through switch set correctly, before either LNK LED will glow solid.
