After lay some new Cat6 cable in the house, the new cable seems not detected by the new unmanaged switch (Tenda )

Current setup cable

1 ) Modem - Switch - Mesh/Node(Tenda MW6) - CCTV (Working )
2 ) Modem - Switch - 4 new Cat6 Cable ( There isnt any light flickering on the switch )

Do I need to do some configuration on the Huawei Modem?

Check your cables end to end make sure there's continuity from each pins

Could be a cable break or bad connectors.

You cannot connect it like that, only one port of the modem works and that is used to connect to your router

Your setup should be like

Huawei Modem -> Tenda -> Switch -> your devices
