RJ-45 LAN Connectors with Integrated LEDs
Two LEDs are built into each RJ-45 LAN connector (as shown in Figure 9). For the 82562ET
NIC, the yellow LED indicates a link to the LAN and the green LED indicates the connection
speed. Table 12 describes the LED states when the board is powered up and the 82562ET
10/100 Ethernet LAN subsystem is operating.
