INSTALLING THE TPT

3-7

Reconnect the RJ-45 connector to the RJ-45 port 
of the TPT.

If a link still has not been established, contact Cabletron 
Systems’ Technical Support.

NOTE: If link has been established, but the LNK LED 
flashes on and off, the polarity of the cable is reversed in 
the receive pair of the twisted pair segment. The TPT has a 
self correcting feature that allows it to continue operating 
without having to rewire the RJ-45 connector.
