Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Reference Manual, R5.0
April 2008
Chapter 4 Optical Cards
4.13.2 OC192 LR/STM64 LH 1550 Card-Level Indicators
The OC192 LR/STM64 LH 1550 card detects SF, LOS, or LOF conditions on the optical facility. Refer
to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Troubleshooting Guide for a description of these conditions. The card also
counts section and line BIP errors from B1 and B2 byte registers in the section and line overhead.
Caution You must use a 20-dB fiber attenuator (19 to 24 dB) when working with the OC192 LR/STM64 LH 1550
card in a loopback. Do not use fiber loopbacks with the OC192 LR/STM64 LH 1550 card. Using fiber
loopbacks causes irreparable damage to the OC192 LR/STM64 LH 1550 card.
4.13.2 OC192 LR/STM64 LH 1550 Card-Level Indicators
Table 4-14 describes the three card-level LED indicators on the OC192 LR/STM64 LH 1550 card.
4.13.3 OC192 LR/STM64 LH 1550 Port-Level Indicators
You can find the status of the OC192 LR/STM64 LH 1550 card ports using the LCD screen on the
ONS 15454 SDH fan-tray assembly. Use the LCD to view the status of any port or card slot; the screen
displays the number and severity of alarms for a given port or slot. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH
Troubleshooting Guide for a complete description of the alarm messages.
Note The optical output power of the OC192 LR/STM64 LH 1550 (+4 dBm to +7 dBm) is 6 dB lower than in
L-64.2b of the 10/2000 prepublished unedited version of ITU-T G.691 (+10 dBm to +13 dBm). However,
the total attenuation range of the optical path, 22 to 16 dB, is maintained by the optical receiver
sensitivity range of the OC192 LR/STM64 LH 1550 (–7 dBm to –24 dBm). This sensitivity range
outperforms the specification in L-64.2b of the 10/2000 prepublished unedited version of ITU-T G.691
as the resulting link budget of the card is 26 dBm.
Table 4-14 OC192 LR/STM64 LH 1550 Card-Level Indicators
Card-Level LED Description
Red FAIL LED The red FAIL LED indicates that the card’s processor is not ready.The FAIL
LED is on during reset and flashes during the boot process. Replace the card
if the red FAIL LED persists.
ACT/STBY LED
Green (Active)
Amber (Standby)
If the ACT/STBY LED is green, the card is operational and ready to carry
traffic. If the ACT/STBY LED is amber, the card is in standby mode or is
part of an active ring switch (BLSR).
Amber SF LED The amber SF LED indicates a signal failure or condition such as LOS, LOF,
or high BERs on one or more of the card’s ports. The amber SF LED is also
on if the transmit and receive fibers are incorrectly connected. If the fibers
are properly connected and the link is working, the light turns off.
