Switch Indicators
The LED indicators on TigerSwitch 100 can be of assistance in
identifying problems. Some common problems and possible
solutions are described below.
Symptom: Link LED does not light up (green) after making a
connection.
Cause: Network interface (e.g., network card on the
attached device), network cable or switch port may
be defective, 4-port module (Model SMC6608M) is
not properly seated.
Solution: Verify that the switch and attached device are
powered on. Be sure the cable is plugged into
both the switch and corresponding device. Verify
that the proper cable type is used and its length
does not exceed specified limits (100 m or 328 ft.).
Check the network card and cable connections for
possible defects. Replace the defective card or
cable, if necessary. If applicable, verify that the
4-port module is properly seated. Re-install the
module, if necessary.
Symptom: Power LED does not light up (green) after power
on.
Cause: Defective power outlet, power cord or internal
power supply.
Solution: Check the power outlet by plugging in another
device that is functioning properly. Check the
power cord with another device. If these
measures fail to resolve the problem, contact
SMC Technical Support for assistance.
