The following figure shows the two alternate mode LEDs for 5420 Series switches: SPD and STK. The Mode button is used to cycle through three display modes for the port LEDs. In the default mode, SPD and STK are off. SPD and STK display modes expire after 30 seconds, at which time the port LEDs revert to the default SYS mode. Pressing and holding the the Mode button initiates Bluetooth pairing.
Note
Front-panel PoE ports use Amber to indicate PoE states.
In the default SYS mode, SPD is OFF, and the port status displays behavior for link, traffic, and PoE as described in the following table:
|
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 |
The port LEDs enter the SPD display mode when the Mode button is pressed one time, indicated by the SPD LED. SPD mode is used to help determine the operational speed of a port.
There are two LEDs per SFP-DD port on 5420 models. When an SFP-DD port is used for Ethernet and stacking is disabled, each SFP-DD port can be used as either a single SFP+ port or two SFP+ ports if an SFP-DD transceiver is used on 5420M models. When the SFP-DD port is used for as a single SFP+ port, the first LED represents link and traffic, while the second LED is not operational. When the SFP-dd port is used as two SFP+ ports, the first LED represents link and traffic for the first port, and the second LED represents link and traffic for the second port. 5420F models are limited to one 10Gbps port per SFP-DD port in Ethernet mode with stacking disabled. The second SFP+ port is not available and the second LED is not operational.
In stack mode, each SFP-DD port can be used as one 20Gbps SFP+ port, or one 10Gbps SFP+ port, depending on the stack speed and optic used. The first LED represents the link state and traffic of the stack port with solid or blinking green. The second SFP+ port is not available and the second LED is not operational.
Color and blink pattern indicate speeds, as referenced by the following table:
|
Color/State |
Speed |
|---|---|
|
Steady green |
10Mbps |
|
Blinking green |
100Mbps |
| Solid amber |
1000Mbps |
|
Slow blinking amber |
2.5Gbps |
|
Slow blinking green |
10Gbps |
|
Fast blinking green |
25Gbps |
|
Fast blinking green |
40/50Gbps |
The port LEDs enter the STK display mode after the Mode button is pressed twice, indicated by the STK LED. STK mode is used to indicate slot presence and slot number via the first eight port LED, as referenced by the following table:
|
Color/State |
Speed |
|---|---|
|
Steady green |
The 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. |
The management port uses two LEDs to indicate port activity and link status, as referenced by the following table:
| Right side LED | State | |
|---|---|---|
| Link | Solid Green | Link up |
| Off | No link up or port disabled | |
| Left side LED | State | |
| Act | Blinking Green | Packet transmitting or receiving |
| Off | No packet transmitting or receiving | |
