2. Attach the other end to an available port on the switch.
Make sure each twisted pair cable does not exceed 100 meters (328 ft) in
length.
Note:
When connecting to RJ-45 ports 25 or 26, verify the corresponding
combination SFP port is not in use. Software settings can be set to give priority to
either the SFP slot or RJ-45 port, however the switch’s default configuration gives
the SFP ports the priority. If the SFP slot has the priority and it has a valid
connection, the RJ-45 port will be disabled.
3. As each connection is made, the Link LED (on the switch) corresponding to
each port will turn on green to indicate that the connection is valid.
