When making fiber optic connections with two cables, be sure that the transmit (TX) connector on the CenturySwitch connects to the receive (RX) connector of the device. Conversely, be sure that the transmit (TX) connector of the device connects to the receive (RX) connector on the CenturySwitch.

Once power is applied to the unit, use the Link/Act LED for Port 8 to verify correct segment connectivity. The LED illuminates if an active device is connected to the other end of the cable(s).
