Data Switch (CE6865-48S8CQ-EI)
Data switches provide a high bandwidth and low latency to connect controller enclosures for their control information exchange and service data flows. They are typically used for connections between multiple controller enclosures when:
- The storage system is installed for the first time. For detailed connection diagrams and configurations, see the Installation Guide corresponding to your product model.
- The storage system capacity is expanded. To expand the capacity of storage components, contact the technical support center.
Indicators
The following figures and tables show and describe the indicators on a data switch.
No. |
Indicator |
Name |
Color and State |
Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|---|
1 |
SYS |
System status indicator |
Green, off |
The system is not running. |
Green, fast blinking |
The system is starting. |
|||
Green, slow blinking |
The system is running normally. |
|||
Red, steady on |
|
|||
2 |
MST |
Stack master/slave indicator NOTE:
In V200R003C00 and later versions, you can use the dfs-master led enable command to enable the stack master/slave indicator to display the DFS group master and backup status. After the stack master/slave indicator is enabled to display the DFS group master and backup status, the stack master/slave indicator on the DFS master device is steady on and that on the DFS backup device is off. |
Green, off |
The switch is not a stack master. |
Green, steady on |
The switch is a stack master or standalone switch. |
|||
3 |
STAT ID |
STAT mode indicator ID indicator |
Blue, off |
The ID indicator is not used (default state). |
Blue, steady on |
The indicator identifies the switch to maintain. The ID indicator can be turned on or off remotely to help field engineers find the switch to maintain. |

Service port indicator (10GE/25GE optical port) NOTE:
Each 10GE/25GE optical port has two single-color indicators. The one on the left is the ACT indicator (yellow), and the one on the right is the LINK indicator (green). Arrowheads show the positions of ports. A down arrowhead indicates a port at the bottom, and an up arrowhead indicates a port at the top. |
Green, off |
No link has been established on the port or the port has been shut down. |
Green, steady on |
A link is established on the port. |
|||
Yellow, off |
The port is not sending or receiving data. |
|||
Yellow, blinking |
The port is sending or receiving data. |
|||

Service port indicator (40GE/100GE optical port) NOTE:
Arrowheads show the positions of ports. A down arrowhead indicates a port at the bottom, and an up arrowhead indicates a port at the top. |
Green, off |
No link has been established on the port or the port has been shut down. |
Green, steady on |
A link is established on the port. |
|||
Green, blinking |
The port is sending or receiving data. |
|||
When a 40GE/100GE port is configured as four 10GE ports or four 25GE ports, this indicator shows the status of a 10GE/25GE port. The sequence number of the indicated port is identified by indicators 40G/100G Breakout 1/2/3/4 on the lower right corner of the panel. NOTE:
Each 40GE/100GE port has a single-color indicator, which shows the status of the 40GE/100GE port by default. |

40G/100G Breakout 1/2/3/4 (sequence number indicators of 10GE/25GE ports converted from a 40GE/100GE port) NOTE:
Indicators 1, 2, 3, 4 turn on in cyclic order, with each indicator keeping on for 5s. |
Green, off |
40GE/100GE ports are working in 40GE or 100GE mode and not split into four 10GE ports or four 25GE ports. |
Green, steady on |
At least one 40GE/100GE port has been split into four 10GE ports or four 25GE ports. When one or more 40GE/100GE ports are split into four 10GE ports or four 25GE ports, these indicators identify the sequence numbers of the 10GE/25GE ports. A port indicator (6 in Figure 4-218) shows the port status:

7 |
ACT |
USB-based deployment indicator |
Green, off |
USB-based deployment is disabled (default state). |
Green, steady on |
USB-based deployment has been completed. |
|||
Green, blinking |
The system is reading data from a USB flash drive. |
|||
Red, steady on |
USB-based deployment has failed. |
|||
8 |
L/A |
ETH management port indicator |
Green, off |
No link is established on the port. |
Green, steady on |
A link is established on the port. |
|||
Red, blinking |
The port is sending or receiving data. |
