Troubleshooting Access Type TDM Channel Modules
2PCA-PCN-10G
This subsection will help you resolve issues that can be experienced on 2PCA-PCN-10G modules.
It assumes that all measurements for the Cx, N East, and N West interfaces are within ADVA Optical
Networking specifications and that you have verified that the application wavelength is the same as the
wavelength for the FSP 3000R7 module’s client interface. If not, refer to “Finding Your Problem - Follow the Light”
on p.53.
CAUTION
Follow all the instructions precisely. If you do not supply the specified attenuation on given
steps, you could destroy the module being tested. As soon as the near-end and the far-end
2PCA-PCN-10G modules in a link are synchronized, the network link is up. The network
interface LEDs light up solid green or blink green depending on the configured transmission
mode: Multiplexer NE Only, Multiplexer NW Only, Multiplexer NE & NW or Regenerator 1-Way.
Note
Before you start with troubleshooting, ensure that the current firmware package is installed on
the 2PCA-PCN-10G module. For details on updating module firmware, refer to “Updating the NE
Software Release” on p.617 and “Performing Other Software Update Actions” on p.628.
Note
Before you start with troubleshooting, ensure that the admin status on the affected module is
configured to “Maintenance”.
CAUTION
The use of pluggable transceivers other than those approved by ADVA Optical Networking will
result in loss of safety approval for the FSP 3000R7. Pluggable transceivers not approved by
ADVA Optical Networking will not function properly. Depending on the channel module type, Rx
and Tx of the affected interfaces may be disabled automatically or not. Only approved pluggable
transceivers will guarantee the behavior in conjunction with the channel module as specified.
Note
If your module has an LED status that is not represented in Table 37 on p.234, please contact
your ADVA Optical Networking Technical Services Representative.
The 2PCA-PCN-10G has 6 LEDs on the faceplate:
• “P” to indicate the power supply status
• “Mod” to indicate the looping back on the client or network interfaces
• “C1”, “C2”, “NW” and “NE” to indicate the interface status.
Note
When a module is removed, it should not be reinserted for at least 10 seconds to allow all power
on the module to dissipate.
