Chapter 3 Switch Installation
Connecting to the 10/100 Ports
Note Many legacy powered devices, including older Cisco IP phones and access points
that do not fully support IEEE 802.3AF, might not support PoE when connected
to the switches by a crossover cable.
Step 2 Connect the other end of the cable to an RJ-45 connector on the other device. The
port LED turns on when both the switch and the connected device have
established link.
The port LED is amber while Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) discovers the
topology and searches for loops. This takes about 30 seconds, and then the port
LED turns green. If the port LED does not turn on, the device at the other end
might not be turned on, or there might be a cable problem or a problem with the
adapter installed in the attached device. See Chapter 4, “Troubleshooting,” for
solutions to cabling problems.
Step 3 Reconfigure and reboot the connected device, if necessary.
Step 4 Repeat Steps 1 through 3 to connect each device.
