Gigabit Ethernet Plus Switches Table 2. Model GS316EP, GS316EPP LEDs on the front panel LED Power LED PoE Max LED Left port LED Right port LED Description Solid green: The switch is powered on and operating normally. Off: Power is not supplied to the switch. Off: Sufficient (more than 7W of) PoE power is available. Solid yellow: Less than 7W of PoE power is available. Blinking yellow: At least once during the previous two minutes, less than 7W of PoE power was available. Solid green: 1000 Mbps link on this port. Blinking green: 1000 Mbps activity on this port. Solid yellow: A valid 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps port link is established. Blinking yellow: 100 Mbps or 10 Mbps activity on this port. Off: No link is detected on this port. Solid green: The port is delivering PoE power. Off: The port is not delivering PoE power. Solid yellow: A PoE fault occurred. 1000BASE-X SFP slots To enable fiber, copper, or long-distance connections on the switch, SFP slots accommodate standard 1G SFP transceiver modules, which are sold separately. For information about specific NETGEAR SFP transceiver modules and cables that are supported for the switch, visit netgear.com/business/wired/switches/ and click the ACCESSORIES tab, or see the datasheet for your specific switch.
