4. As a connection is made, check the Link LED on the switch to be sure that the
connection is valid.
Note:
Be sure to secure cables properly and route them away from the switch
without exceeding the minimum bending radius for fiber cables (typically a few

cable. Do not let cables hang free supporting their own weight or pull in any way
that puts stress on the connectors.
