with a valid signal present should be lit (solid green). All T1/E1 Ports with no
electrical signal present, should be Off.

The Ethernet LINK/ACT LED is solid green when a port is connected and link
signal is present (the signal will flash when activity is present). The FULL/COL
LED will be lit depending on the incoming signal. (If the Ethernet signal is 10/
100Mbps and full duplex, the FULL/COL and 100M LEDs should be lit). If the
Ethernet connection is not 100Mbps or if it is half duplex, then both FULL/COL and
100M LEDs will be off.
