2346 T3 Modem

The front panel LEDs show both normal and fault conditions. Typically, if a LED is steady red, the
fault is in the local 2346; if it blinks red, the fault is in the remote modem. Additional information
about fault conditions appears in the System Alarms and System Configuration screens. To aid
troubleshooting, Table 1 lists the functions of the front panel LEDs. For details on the LED status
during normal start-up and operation, see Chapter 2.

Additional information about fault conditions appears in the System Alarms, Hardware
Configuration, and Functional Configuration screens.

• The fiber optic cable is within the specifications and loss budget of the optic interface module
• The line length between the 2346 and the remote link does not exceed the allowable loss

budget or overdrive limit

• All host modules in the link are turned on
• All fiber cables are connected Tx to Rx and Rx to Tx
