Figure 4-1. Switch connected to an End Node
The LED indicators for the port the end node is connected to
are lit according to the capabilities of the NIC. If LED indicators
are not illuminated after making a proper connection, check
the PC’s LAN card, the cable, switch conditions, and
connections.
The following LED indicator states are possible for an end node
to switch connection:
1. The 100M LED indicator comes ON for a 100 Mbps and
stays OFF for 10 Mbps.
2. The Link/Act LED indicator lights up upon hooking up a
PC that is powered on.
Switch to Hub or Switch
These connections can be accomplished in a number of ways.
The most important consideration is that when using a normal,
straight-through cable, the connection should be made
between a normal crossed port (Port 1x, 2x, etc.) and an Uplink
(MDI-II) port. If you are using a crossover cable, the connection
must be made from Uplink to Uplink, or from a crossed port to
another crossed port.
