Off The port is operating in half-duplex mode. Vista RJ-45 Network Ports with Built-in LEDs All of the ports on the switch are 10/100 Mbps capable autosensing Ethernet ports. Each port supports only unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable using an 8pin RJ-45 plug. Each port uses vista RJ-45 connectors that have two LEDs-the Link LED and the FDX LED. Link FDX 8923EB Normal/Uplink Push Button The Normal/Uplink push button on the front panel of the switch allows you to select uplink (MDI) or normal (MDI-X) wiring for port 16 on the Model FS516 switch and port 24 on the Model FS524 switch. These ports are configured for normal wiring to connect to a PC when the push button is in the out position. When the push button is pressed in, these ports are configured for uplink wiring to connect to another switch or to a hub, using a straight-through twisted pair cable.
