Procedure
Step 1 Determine the number and type of ports to be connected and plan the cabling routes.
Step 2 Obtain the desired quantity and lengths of copper cables.
Step 3 Wear an ESD wrist strap or ESD gloves. When wearing an ESD wrist strap, ensure that it is in
close contact with your wrist and grounded properly.
Step 4 Attach temporary labels to both ends of each copper cable and number them corresponding to
port numbers. For details, see 13.5.4 Engineering Labels for User Cables.
Step 5 Connect the copper cables to ports on the switch, matching the numbers on the copper cables
to those on the ports. To connect them, align the copper cable connector with the port and
insert the connector. When you hear a click, the copper cable is securely connected. See
