It is possible to damage a switch port by hooking one of the cheap |
| 10 |
testers directly to one of the switch ports, just a warning. The testers |
| 11 |
that actually do speed certification testing are safe. If the tester you |
| 12 |
have only has LEDs to indicate continuity don't hook it up to a switch port! |
