Is the GX switch an optical port
Use a QSFP to SFP adapter (QSA) to convert one or more ports to 10G to connect the APICs. The switch can be configured to work as 10/25/40/50/100/200/400-Gbps offering flexible options in a compact form factor. The VIC 1225 module supports optical transceivers, optical cables, and switches with optical downlink ports (such as: Cisco Nexus 93600CD-GX switch). The Cisco Nexus 93600CD-GX switch (N9K-C93600CD-GX) is a 1-rack unit (RU), fixed-port switch designed for deployment in data centers.

Which port is the optical port on the switch
The SFP port is commonly found on Gigabit Ethernet switches and is primarily used for fiber optic device connections or for uplinking 1G switches to aggregation/core layer devices, providing higher-bandwidth links. Optical ports on switches typically accommodate optical modules for transmitting data via fiber optic cables. A standard Ethernet cable (Cat5/5e/6/6a cable) is often used when connecting two RJ45 ports on Gigabit switches. RJ45 ports serve access-layer copper connections; SFP/SFP+ ports enable flexible 1G/10G uplinks; SFP28 delivers 25G for modern data centers; QSFP+ and QSFP28 support high-density 40G/100G spine–leaf. Learn what an SFP port (SFP slot or SFP interface) is, how it works on a switch, and its role in networking.

KVM switcher failed to switch
Solution: First, check if the switch's power indicator light is on and ensure the power source is properly connected. We will now introduce some of these problems and provide solutions to help you make better use of a KVM switch. For instance, when you try to handshake with your monitor, your graphics driver can just give up after a while. Frustrated with your KVM switch causing problems? Whether it's no image on your monitor, USB devices not working, or hotkey switching failing, these issues can be a real headache.

Switch port 5 has no light display
Verify that the transceiver is installed correctly and that the cable is connected correctly. System activity and status can be determined through the activity of the LEDs on the switch. Sometimes, you might find that only the power light is lit on your unmanaged switch when a DUT (device under test like a computer or a router) is connected to the switch, this problem might be caused by non-standard cable, the speed negotiation failure between the switch and the DUT, or the switch.
