4. VerifythatalinkexistsbycheckingthattheportLink/ActivityLEDison(blinking
greenorsolidgreen).IftheLink/ActivityLEDisoff,performthefollowingstepsuntil
itison:
a. VerifythatthedeviceattheotherendofthesegmentisONandconnectedtothe
segment.
b. If
thereareseparatefiber‐opticconnectionsontheotherdevice,checkthe
crossoverofthecables.Swapthecableconnectionsifnecessary.
c. Checkthat thefiber‐opticconnectionmeetsthedBlossandcablespecifications
outlinedintheCablingGuideformultimodemodecabling.Toobtainthis
