The following table describes the LEDs on the card panel.
Interface Cable The external interface provided by the FIC-1CE3 uses two SMB sockets respectively
for data transmitting (Tx) and data receiving (Rx). The interface transmits in
75-ohm unbalanced mode and uses a pair of 75-ohm unbalanced coaxial cables to
connect another device.
