Chapter 7 Hardware Specifications
Firepower 8000 Series Devices
Use the following table to understand the optical parameters of the fiber interfaces.
Stacking Module
The stacking module contains two connection ports for the 8000 Series stacking cable, and activity and
link LEDs.

Fiber Link/Activity LEDs
Status
Description
Top
For an inline or passive interface: the light flashes when the interface has
activity. If dark, there is no activity.
Bottom
For an inline interface: the light is on when the interface has link. If dark, there
is no link.
For a passive interface: the light is always on.
