To use the mode-conditioning patch cord, follow these steps:

Step 1 Attach the patch cord to the SC-type receptacle on the GBIC. (See Figure 2-13.)

Step 2 Attach the network ends of your patch cord to the appropriate 1000BASEX equipment in your building cable plant.

Ensure that you connect the TX and RX ports on one end of the patch cord to the RX and TX ports (respectively) on the other end. Connect TX to RX and RX to TX.

This completes the procedures for connecting the I/O cables.
