X465 Mode and System Status LEDs shows the two alternate mode LEDs for X465 switches: SPD and STK. The Mode button is used to cylce through three display modes for the port LEDs. SPD and STK display modes will expire after 30 seconds, at which time the port LEDs will revert to the default SYS mode.

Front-panel PoE ports use Amber to indicate PoE states.

Port LEDs in Default (SYS) Mode

In the default SYS mode, SPD and STK are OFF, and the port status will display as described in Port LEDs in SYS Mode (default):

Color/State

Meaning

Steady green

Link is OK; port is not powered

Steady amber

Link is OK; port is powered; no traffic

Blinking green

Link is OK and transmitting packets; port is not powered

Blinking amber

Link is OK and transmitting packets; port is powered

Slow blinking amber

No link, or disabled port; port is powered

Alternating amber and green

Port has a power fault

Off

Port is not powered, has no link, or is disabled

Port LEDs in SPD Mode

After one press of the Mode button (see X465 Mode and System Status LEDs), the port LEDs will enter the SPD Display Mode, indicated by the SPD LED. SPD mode is used to help determine the operational speed of a port. Color and blink pattern indicate speeds, as referenced by Port LEDs in SPD Mode:

Port LEDs in STK Mode

After two presses of the Mode button, the port LEDs will enter the STK Display Mode, indicated by the STK LED. STK mode is used to indicate slot presence and slot number via the first eight port LEDs, as referenced by Port LEDs Indicating Stack Slot Presence in STK Mode:

Stacking Indication

Steady green

Slot corresponding to the port number of the LED is present

Blinking green

This slot has a slot number corresponding to the port number of the blinking LED
