Severity
Probable Cause Suggested Corrective Action
CH MJ The received signal
has exceeded the
number of block
errors defined by
the facility’s SDHT-
TCMA attribute
value during an
interval defined by
the facility’s
SDPER-TCMA
attribute value.
1 Verify that the facility is
provisioned correctly (especially
the attributes quoted at left).
2 Verify that the incoming cable is
the correct cable and that the
transmit and receive ports are
connected to their proper
respective portions of the cable
(i.e. that the fibers are not
swapped between transmit and
receive).
3 Verify that the incoming optical
fiber is firmly connected to the
receive port associated with the
facility and that the connector is
not physically impaired by
obstructions, dirt or component
damage. Clean the connector or
replace the cable, plug or module,
as appropriate, depending upon the
cause determined from the
physical examination.
4 Verify that a signal is present at
the cable termination and that the
signal conforms to the required
specifications (e.g. minimum and
maximum power levels). If the
signal meets the required
specifications proceed to the next
step below, otherwise locate the
source of the signal problem
upstream and repair the problem.
5 Replace the plug or module
supporting the facility.
