Connecting to Dual-Purpose Ports
Only one port on a dual-purpose port can be active at a time. If both ports are
connected, the SFP module port has priority.
Follow these steps:
Connecting to 100BASE-FX Ports
Follow these steps:
Verifying Port Connectivity
After you connect to the switch port and another device, the port LED turns amber
while the switch establishes a link. This process takes about 30 seconds, and then
the LED turns green when the switch and the target device have an established
link. If the LED is off, the target device might not be turned on, there might be a
cable problem, or there might be a problem with the adapter installed in the
target device.
Step 1
Insert either an RJ-45 connector to the 10/100/1000 port (see the “Connecting to 10/100 and
10/100/1000 Ports” section on page 22), or install an SFP module into the SFP module slot,
and connect a cable to the SFP module port. (See the “Installing SFP Modules and Connecting
to Ports” section on page 23.)
Step 2
Insert the other cable end into the other device.
Step 1
Insert an LC cable into the 100BASE-FX port
of a Cisco IEM-3000-8FM expansion module.
Step 2
Insert the other cable end into the other device.
