hello,
i heard this unpopulated and populated port. what is the difference of the two? can someone here explain it for me. tnx a lot....

I would assume that populated would indicate that the port has a cable in it, and unpopulated would indicate that the port was empty.

Hi,
I think that port populated may be a port with a GBIC or SFP module inserted; a port unpopulated may be a port to be populated with a module.

As Martin said above, a populated port means a cable plugged on the port and is active.
unpopulated could be either cable not connected on that port or the port is not active

Ok,
It may be also: "the term populated refers to bay or slot to be populated with network module or card".
Best regards.
