Let $n\ge 2$ be a positive integer. Let $x_1, x_2, \dots, x_n$ be non-zero real numbers satisfying the equation \[\left(x_1+\frac{1}{x_2}\right)\left(x_2+\frac{1}{x_3}\right)\dots\left(x_n+\frac{1}{x_1}\right)=\left(x_1^2+\frac{1}{x_2^2}\right)\left(x_2^2+\frac{1}{x_3^2}\right)\dots\left(x_n^2+\frac{1}{x_1^2}\right).\]Find all possible values of $x_1, x_2, \dots, x_n$.
