DO this:

1.  Command:  test cable tdr interface Gi1/0/16;

2.  Wait for approximately 5 to 7 seconds;

3.  Command:  sh cable tdr interface Gi 1/0/16; and

4.  Post the output to #3.

OMFG!

Where did you get your cable from????  THROW IT AWAY.

For PoE you need all the result to be "NORMAL".  A result of "Short" is bad.  A result of "Crosstalk" is worst!

ok, will do that.
