10BaseT LEDs
10BaseT LEDs
On the upper left and right corners of the RJ-45 jack, inside the BPU, are green LEDs, which indicate
transmit and receive status from the network.
When the CAR (for Carrier) LED illuminates, this indicates that the Ethernet carrier is active. This LED
should be illuminated when the BridgeLINK -Pro is operating normally.
When the ACT (for Activity) LED illuminates, this indicates Ethernet activity on the network. This LED
flickers when there is communication taking place on the Ethernet network.
Power Port
Power Port
The Power port is not used in the BridgeLINK-Pro, and nothing should be connected to this port.
Radio LED
Radio LED
The LED on the bottom of the BPU is a bi-color LED. It will illuminate
green
when the 10BaseRadio
chip detects packets in the air. If there is no other BPU to talk to, this LED will flash
orange
about
once a second, as it sends ‘hello’ packets to discover an associated unit.
Since 10BaseRadio sends and receives keep-alive packets about once a second, this LED should
flash
green
that often on a quiet link, and more often on an active link. It will flash
orange
when the
BPU is sending traffic to the other BPU. When sending long packets, this LED will appear to be solid
orange, and when idle, will flash a very short orange about once a second.
