CAUTION:
To maintain agency approvals, use only a properly constructed,
shielded cable.
TIP:
Ensure that you order cables with the correct polarity. Vendors refer to
these crossover cables as key up to key up, latch up to latch up, Type B, or
Method B. If you are using patch panels between two QSFP+ or QSFP28
transceivers, ensure that the proper polarity is maintained through the cable
plant.
