Ok quick overview:
Got a 3com superstack switch with addon fiber card (LC connector). We have an existing cisco unmanaged switch that is near death. So i want to connect the incoming fiber connection (from the warehouse) to the new switch. I bought the LC to SC cable to do it, but when i connect it to the patch panel for the fiber all goes well but i cannot ping any machines out in the warehouse and they lose all connectivity to the rest of the systems. The switch out in the warehouse is a cisco brand as well. Is the 3com not able to talk to the cisco? The 3com is managed and the cisco is not, does that make a difference?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
