RBM33 External LED

Hardware MikroTik hardware general

Hi,
Is it possible to connect external LED’s to the M33 RB. We place these in a dedicated external enclosure and would like to connect some external LED’s so we can see if the board is powered up etc without having to open the enclosure up.

I have looked up the GPIO output but there doesn’t seem to be any mention of external LED connections.

Thanks

I do not know any MikroTik product than have external leds connectors except probably for old RB6xx or RB5xx series?

For powered up state, if you don’t use USB port, you can try to connect some led on this port.

Regards.

Unfortunately the USB port is being used. Maybe its one for the request section as these boards are designed to go into enclosures so woudl be a handy feature to have.

And if you try with a small USB hub?

Regards.

You could go the mechanical/optical route and use a light pipe to bring out an onboard led -
