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mult imodecabling.Toobtainthisdocument,

Connecting Fiber-Optic Cables to LC Ports
Thissectiondescribeshowtoconnect
•a1000BASE‐SXmultimodefiber‐opticsegmentfromthenetworkorotherdevicesto
anLCportconnectorofaMini‐GBIC(MGBIC‐LC01orMGBIC‐LC03),or
•a1000BASE‐LXsingle‐modefiber‐opticsegmentfromthenetworkorotherdevicesto
anLC
portconnectorofaMini‐GBIC(MGBIC‐LC09).
Eachfiber‐opticlinkconsistsoftwofiber‐opticstrandswithinthecable:
•Transmit(TX)
• Receive(RX)
Thetransmitstrandfromadeviceportconnectstothereceiveportof afiber‐opticGigabit
Ethernetdeviceattheotherendofthesegment.The
receivestrandoftheapplicableLC
portconnectstothetransmitportofthefiber‐opticGigabitEthernetdevice.
Enterasysrecommendslabelingfiber‐opticcablestoindicatereceiveandtransmitends.
Manycablesarepre‐labeled,providingmatchinglabelsortapesatbothendsofeach
strandofcable.
Warning: Do not use optical instruments to view laser output. The use of optical
instruments to view laser output increases eye hazard.
Advertencia: No utilizar instrumentos opticos para ver el laser. El uso de instrumentos
opticos para ver el laser incrementa el riesgo de perdida de la vision.
Warnhinweis: Benutzen sie keinesfalls optische Hilfmittel, um die Funktion des Lasers zu
überprüfen, es könnte ihr Augenlicht gefährden.
