Port LEDs
Each port has its own Logged-In LED (L) and Activity LED (A) as shown in 
.
Figure 1-4. Port LEDs
Port Logged-In LED (Green)
The Logged-in LED indicates the logged-in or initialization status of the connected 
devices. After successful completion of the POST, the switch extinguishes all 
Logged-In LEDs. Following a successful port login, the switch illuminates the 
corresponding logged-in LED, indicating that the port is connected and able to 
communicate with the attached devices. The Logged-In LED remains lit as long 
as the port is initialized or logged in. If the port connection is broken or an error 
occurs that disables the port, the Logged-In LED is not lit. For more information 
about the Logged-In LED, refer to 
.
Port Activity LED (Green)
The Activity LED indicates that data is passing through the port. Each frame that 
the port transmits or receives illuminates this LED for 50 milliseconds, which 
makes it possible to observe the transmission of a single frame.
Transceivers
The QLogic 5800V Series switch supports SFP optical transceivers for the SFP 
ports, and XPAK optical transceivers or XPAK stacking cables for the XPAK ports. 
A transceiver converts electrical signals to and from optical laser signals to 
transmit and receive data. Duplex fiber optic cables plug into the SFP 
transceivers, which then connect to the devices. An SFP port is capable of 
transmitting at 1, 2, 4, or 8Gbps; however, the transceiver must also be capable of 
transmitting at these rates.
