2. Press the RJ45 connector into the port until the click of the locking clip
is felt. The pressure required to perform this should be minimal. If you
encounter resistance or excessive friction, remove the connector and
check the port for obstruction. Also, verify that the connector and the
port are of the same type.
Once the locking clip snaps into place, the RJ45 connector will remain
in the port.
3. Check for a valid link by examining the RCV LEDs. A solid green
LED indicates that a valid link has been achieved. If the LED remains
dark, perform each of the following steps until it is lit:
a. Check that the 10BASE-T device at the other end of the twisted
pair segment is ON.
b. Verify that the RJ45 connectors on the 10BASE-T segment have
the proper pinouts (Figure 3-8).
c. Check the cable for continuity.
d. Check that the twisted pair connection meets dB loss and cable
specifications outlined in Appendix D, Ethernet Cabling
Requirements.
If a link still has not been established, contact Cabletron Systems
Technical Support.
