Cabling the Ports

Here are the guidelines for connecting a network cable to the twisted pair
port:

The RJ-45 connector should fit snugly into the port on the module and
the tab on the connector should lock the connector into place.

The default setting for a twisted pair port is Auto-Negotiation and auto-
MDI/MDI-X.

Here are the guidelines for connecting the fiber optic cable to the SFP
module:

Do not remove the dust cover from the fiber optic port until you are
ready to connect the cable. Dust contamination can adversely affect
the operation of the port. For directions on how to clean a fiber optic
port, refer to Chapter B, “Cleaning Fiber Optic Connectors” on page
63.

The connector on the fiber optic cable should firmly lock into place on
the port.

You should verify that the fiber optic ports on the SFP module and the
remote device are compatible and that you are using the correct type
of fiber optic cable.
