To install a mini-GBIC:
1 Insert the mini-GBIC into a mini-GBIC slot on the front panel until it clicks
into place.
2 Remove the protective covering(s) from the port connector(s).
3 Insert the network cable.
For 1000BASE-SX or 1000BASE-LX fiber, make sure you insert the two
cable ends in the proper sides (transmit or receive). Otherwise, the link
does not work.
4 Observe the LED next to the mini-GBIC port:
If the LED is green, the 1000-Mbps link is operational.
If the LED is blinking amber, traffic is active on the 1000-Mbps link.
If the LED is unlit, the link is not operational. Check the cable and
verify that the device at the other end of the link is operational.
