4. Observe the port status indicator:
• The status indicator turns amber while the SFP discovers the
network topology and searches for loops. This process takes about 30
seconds, and then the port status indicator turns green.
• The status indicator turns green when the switch and the target
device have an established link.
• The status indicator turns off if the target device is not turned on or
there is a problem with the cable or the adapter that is installed in the
target device.
If necessary, reconfigure and restart the switch or the target device.
Connect to a
Dual-purpose Port A dual-purpose port is one port with two interfaces, one for an RJ45 cable and
another for an approved SFP module. Only one interface can be active at a
time. If both interfaces are connected, the SFP module has priority.
To connect to a dual-purpose port, follow these steps.
1. Connect an RJ45 connector to the 10/100/1000 port, or install an SFP
module into the SFP module slot, and connect a cable to the SFP
module port.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the other device.
By default, the switch detects whether an RJ45 connector or SFP
module is connected to a dual-purpose port and configures the port
accordingly. You can change this setting and configure the port to
recognize only an RJ45 connector or only an SFP module by using the
media type interface configuration command.
ATTENTION: Do not remove the rubber plugs from the SFP module port or
the rubber caps from the fiber-optic cable until you are ready to connect the
cable. The plugs and caps protect the SFP module ports and cables from
contamination and ambient light.
