Monitoring and Repair

Synchronization is preserved if the REDUNDANT channel has failed or is being

repaired. The repair of the REDUNDANT channel can be performed online

while the redundant chassis pair is running synchronized. To aid online repairs,

the fiber cable connections and SFP transceiver can be removed and inserted

under power.

It is not mandatory to have the REDUNDANT channel connected between the

two redundancy modules. The redundant chassis pair can be synchronized with

just one of the channels connected. The REDUNDANT channel can be

installed later while the chassis is running synchronized.

The status indicators on the front panel and the indicators and counters

displayed in the RMCT provide monitoring of the channel status.
