NOTE
Because harmonics can appear on the neutral line of a typical three-phase power circuit, Extreme Networks
recommends using a harmonics meter in new installations.
Making Network Interface Cable Connections
Use the appropriate type of cable to connect the ports of your switch to another switch or router.
Working carefully, one port at a time, follow these steps:
1 Verify that you have identified the correct cable for the port.
2 Use an alcohol wipe or other appropriate cleaning agent to clean the cable connectors; make sure
they are free of dust, oil, and other contaminants.
3 If you are using optical fiber cable, align the transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) connectors with the
correct corresponding connectors on the switch or the I/O module.
4 Press the cable connectors into their mating connectors on the switch or I/O module until the cable
connector is firmly seated.
5 Repeat steps 1 through 4 for the remaining cables on this or other switches or I/O modules.
6 Dress and secure the cable bundle to provide appropriate strain relief and protection against bends
and kinks.
