Symptoms 

Possible 

Causes 

Suggested Solutions 

SYSTEM LED is 
Off 

The switch is 
not receiving 
power. 

1. Check if correct power cord is connected firmly to 
the switch and to the AC outlet socket.  
2. Perform power cycling the switch by unplugging 
and plugging the power cord back into the switch. 
3. If the LED is still off, try to plug power cord into 
different AC outlet socket to make sure correct AC 
source is supplied.  

SYSTEM LED is 
RED 

An abnormal 
state has been 
detected by the 
switch. 

Check the system log within the switch from WEB UI 
to understand the abnormal state (e.g. exceeding 
operating temperature range) and take 
corresponding actions to resolve. 

Port Status LED 
is Off in the 
Link/Act/Speed 
Mode 

The port is not 
connected or 
the connection 
is not working. 

1. Check if the cable connector plug is firmly 
inserted and locked into the port at both the switch 
and the connected device. 
2. Make sure the connected device is up and running 
correctly. 
3. If the symptom still exists, try different cable or 
different port, in order to identify if it is related to 
the cable or specific port. 
4. Check if the port is disabled in the configuration 
settings via WEB user interface. 

Port Status LED 
is Off in the PoE 
Mode 

The port is not 
supplying 
power 

1. Check if the cable connector plug is firmly 
inserted and locked into the port at both the switch 
and the connected device. 
2. Make sure the correct Ethernet cables are used. 
3. If the symptom still exists, try different cable or 
different port, in order to identify if it is related to 
the cable or specific port. 
4. Check if the port is disabled in the configuration 
settings via WEB user interface.
