My 4500 switch has CRC errors on the interface Te1/1 which is the uplink to the Core switch. It also has jabber and Sequence-Err.

Hi,
Clear the interface counter and start with changing the fiber patch between the 2 switches. If that does not help then replace the GBICs and see what happens.

Hi,
What is port settings on core switch?
Do you see any errors on port connected to core switch?
thanks

Hi,
The interface has had 7630063 'Input errors'. An input error includes runts, giants, no buffer, CRC, frame, overrun, and ignored counts. Other input-related errors can also cause the input error count to be increased. Some datagrams can have more than one error. Therefore, this sum may not be equal to the sum of enumerated input error counts.
The CRC error rate is 1.85579% (greater than 1 in a million packets), and the collision rate is less than 0.1%. This can indicate excessive noise or transmission problems on the LAN or the LAN bus itself. A high number of CRCs is usually the result of collisions or a station transmitting bad data.
Do the following things and check the results:-
Check cables to determine whether any are damaged. If 100BaseTX is being used, ensure Category 5 cabling is being used and not another type, such as Category 3.
Hope to Help !!

Hi,
At suggest I will go with suggestion provided by Ganesh and Reza that cable to be swapped.. other than that couple of unusal things i observed
Usually reliability in LAN always 255/255 and if you are not using any DHCP or HSRP then number of broadcast and multicast should be minimum. Packet sniffer with provide you more details why so many broadcasts and multicast..
Hope this will help you to progress towards resolution.

Thanks Guys,
I am using fibre cables on that port, I will try changing the fibre patch cords.
and yes, I do see similar errors on the ports connected to the Core Switch.
