19 Each card faceplate contains a green light emitting diode (LED) that turns ON if the card is operational and active, and an amber LED that turns ON if the card fails. The LEDs are OFF on the backup CTP. The amber LED FLASHES if beaconing is enabled. Power/system LED assembly The bezel at the top front of the director includes an amber system error light-emitting diode (LED) and a green power LED. These LEDs are actuated ...

an expansion port (E_Port). A multi-switch fabric is formed through multiple directors and ISLs. Figure 2 shows the faceplate of an UPM. Figure 2 UPM card LEDs and connectors Single-mode or multi-mode fiber-optic cables attach to UPM cards through small form factor pluggable (SFP) optic transceivers. The fiber-optic transceivers provide du ...
