[c-nsp] device shows no link on 6509, but works on other switches

[Wojtek Zlobicki]

1) Turn OFF inline power (assuming you are using it).  Do not leave it on auto.
2) Try a 200ft ethernet cable (we ran into issues with some gear where
it looked as if the line buildout was doing something weird.  The end
device only worked once a very long patch cord was introduced.

If we try a Cisco VoIP phone or a regular laptop, using the same cable into the same port, we get a link light and traffic flows fine.
