Page 43: Chapter 3 : Troubleshooting
This chapter contains information on how to troubleshoot the switch if a problem occurs. Note For further assistance, please contact Allied Telesis Technical Support at www.alliedtelesis.com/support. Problem 1: The POWER LED on the front of the switch is off. Solutions: The unit is not receiving power. Try the following: ❒... - Page 44 Chapter 3: Troubleshooting ❒ Try connecting another network device to the twisted pair port with a different cable. If the twisted pair port is able to establish a link, then the problem is with the cable or the other network device. ❒...
- Page 45 Solution: There might be a duplex mode mismatch between the port and the network device. This occurs when a twisted pair port using Auto- Negotiation is connected to a device with a fixed duplex mode of full duplex. If this is the cause of the problem, adjust the duplex mode of the port on the network device or on the switch so that both ports are using the same duplex mode.
