Link/Act (Ports 1 through 12) Lights green when the port is
connected to a powered-on Ethernet/Fast Ethernet station, and blinks
off briefly when information is transmitted or received on the port.
♦
FDX/Col (Ports 1 through 12) Lights green when the port is
operating in full-duplex mode. Briefly blinks amber when a collision
occurs on the Ethernet/Fast Ethernet segment.
