ports bouncing unexpectedly

Tue May 22, 2018 11:00 am

I have a new WS-12-250-DC That I am experiencing frequent unexpected port bounces. This is the second switch that I put in the same location that is experiencing this issue, so I do not believe the switch is the culprit, but I need guidance in finding the cause. Thank you.

Possible causes:
Bad cable
Bad end (crimp)
Bad radio ethernet port
Noise on the wire
You have the port speed/duplex in the switch or radio set to a specific speed/duplex and not set to AUTO which you should always do.

Re: ports bouncing unexpectedly

I feel like I have sufficiently ruled out cable ends and crimps, and the ports are set to auto negotiate.

I was already leaning towards "noise", but is there an easy way to test for that?
