Troubleshooting Access Type TDM Channel Modules
8TCA-PC-2G1U+10G-V
This subsection will help you resolve issues that can be experienced on 8TCA-PC-2G1U+10G-V modules. It
assumes that all measurements for both C1 to C8 and the network interface are within ADVA Optical Networking
specifications and that you have verified that the application wavelength is the same as the wavelength for the
client pluggable transceiver interface. If not, refer to “Finding Your Problem - Follow the Light” on p.53 in this
document.
CAUTION
Follow all the instructions precisely. If you do not supply the specified attenuation on given
steps, you may destroy the module being tested. As soon as the near-end and the far-end 8TCA-
PC-2G1U+10G-V module in a link are synchronized the network link is up and the network
interface LED will light up solid green.
Note
Before you start with troubleshooting, ensure that the current firmware package is installed on
the 8TCA-PC-2G1U+10G-V 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”.
Note
The module supports configuring ‘disparity correction’. It is set to “enabled” by default. For more
information about this parameter, refer to the Management Data Guide.
Restrictions
A clock sync. loss status is not signaled on the client and network interface LEDs.
Data Rates vs. Client Interface Groups and Client Interfaces
Note
Not each supported data rate is configurable in each client pluggable transceiver slot. Client
interfaces in bold support 2125 Mbit/s only.
The 8TCA-PC-2G1U+10G-V channel module supports following data rates:
• 1062 Mbit/s
• 1250 Mbit/s
• 2125 Mbit/s
The following table lists supported data rates.
