How to connect two Cisco switches using fiber optic cable
Understandin the difference between single mode and multi mode fiber is crucial for ensuring compatibilty and optimizing your network performance. So all PCs connected to each switch would reach the LAN/WAN from the other switch. (attached is the image here with) I see that the 2960 has 2 SFP ports each port of each switch. In this article, we'll explain how to connect multiple Ethernet switches using fiber optic cables and the equipment required for this to work. Most modern SFP transceiver modules. Most modern fiber-enabled network switches require an SFP transceiver module featuring a duplex (two strand) multimode OM3 or duplex single mode OS2 connection with LC connectors. Direct attach cables with pre-terminated SFP connections may also be used.

Cisco port optical power check switch
Log in to the switch console to run the privileged EXEC mode of the Cisco switch, use the fiber-ports-optical-transceiver command. The Output Power (mWatt) field in the command output indicates the received power of the optical module, and the Input Power (mWatt) field indicates the. When optical modules operate on a switch, it is usually necessary to read the module's internal information to understand its working status—such as connection status and real-time metrics like optical power and temperature. Additionally, identifying module information helps detect coding. Monitoring the optical power of SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) modules is a critical step in maintaining stable network links. Even if an interface appears up, degraded Tx/Rx levels can cause intermittent flapping, packet loss, or err-disabled states. This article provides instructions on how to view the Optical Module Status on your switch through the Command Line Interface (CLI). Here are the sample commands for checking the TX/RX optical power.
