Connection is not opening for SQL server 2016 with port 1600 using VB.Net

Connection is not opening when I try to open using VB.Net to MS SQL server 2016 with port 1600.
My connection string is "Public glob_connection_string As String = "Server=learningserver.com,1600;Database=learning;User ID=read_only;Password=read_only"

Visual studio: 2010
MS SQL server: 2016

Could you please help what's wrong with this connection?
