Corrective Action
 Confirm that the switch is connected to a properly functioning
and active power source.
 Ensure that the power cable is securely connected to the
switch and to a power source.
 Ensure that the connectors are fully inserted into the ports of
the switch and the attached device.
 Ensure that the attached device is powered on. Verify that the
NIC on the attached device is operating properly.
 Test the cable.
 
 Try a known working cable.
 Ensure that the cables are terminated using TIA 568A or 568B
standards.
 
 10Base-T, 100Base-T, and 1000Base-T cables have limitations
for link lengths. Move the connected device closer to the switch
and use a shorter cable.
 Ensure that all devices connected to the switch are configured
to automatically detect and set port speed and duplex settings.
 Reconnect the connector for the affected link to a different
switch port.
 Ensure that you are using Category 5 cable or better for all
10Base-T and 100Base-T links, or Category 5e for 1000Base-T
links.
 Test any cables that have kinks, sharp bends, or appear to be
damaged.
 10Base-T, 100Base-T, and 1000Base-T cables have limitations
for link lengths. Move the connected device closer to the switch
and use a shorter cable.
 No action required.
 Verify that the port or NIC on the attached device is operating
properly.
 No action required.
 Ensure that any devices connected to the switch are set to
automatically detect and set port speed and duplex settings.
 Resegment the network to decrease the number of users on
the link.
