Condition

 

Solution

 

 

At power up, all front panel

1. Verify that the channel bank or ONU BPS power LEDs are on.

indicators are OFF

2. Make sure that the unit is fully and correctly inserted into the channel bank or ONU.

 

3.

If step 1 fails, contact Alcatel customer service (800-848-0333). If step 1 passes, but step

 

 

2 fails, replace the H2TU-C.

 

 

The STAT LED remains RED.

1. Verify that the channel bank or ONU BPS STAT LEDs are off.

 

2.

Verify that the equipment type for the Litespan H2TU-C slot is AHDSL2. Using TL1,

 

 

equipment type is shown with the command RTRV-EQPT::AID, where AID is the access

 

 

identifier (i.e., COT-1-15).

 

3.

If step 1 fails, contact Alcatel customer service (800-848-0333). If step 1 and step 2 pass,

 

 

replace the H2TU-C. If step 1 passes but step 2 fails, delete the equipment record

 

 

(i.e., DLT-EQPT::COT-1-15 with TL1) and reinsert the card, or equip the slot with the

 

 

currently reserved equipment type.

 

 

The STAT LED is OFF, but the

1. Confirm that the HDSL2 loop is not open.

HLOS LED remains RED.

2. Confirm that the HDSL2 loop is not shorted.

 

3.

Verify the loop conforms to CSA guidelines and is not too long. Loop loss at 200 kHz

 

 

should be less than 35.25 dB.

 

4.

Verify that the HDSL2 loop has acceptable noise limits (see Section 4).

 

5.

Verify that tip and ring of the HDSL2 loop belong to the same twisted pair.

 

6.

If steps 1 through 5 pass, but the HLOS LED remains red, replace the H2TU-C.

 

7.

If step 6 fails, replace the H2TU-R.

 

 

The STAT LED is OFF, but the

1. Check that the framing and line coding are set appropriately for T1 data at the H2TU-R and

RLOS LED remains RED.

 

check for cross-connected T1 data coming to the H2TU-C.

 

2.

Check that the RLOS LED at the H2TU-R is off.

 

3.

If step 1 fails, change the appropriate framing and line coding. If step 1 passes but step 2 fails,

 

 

a problem may exist at the H2TU-R T1 interface. If subsequent testing determines that the

 

 

problem does not exist at the T1interface, replace the H2TU-C.

ADTRAN AHDSL2 specifications Troubleshooting Procedures, Product Specifications, Warranty and Customer Service

AHDSL2 specifications

ADTRAN AHDSL2 is a sophisticated technology designed to enhance broadband connectivity, primarily focusing on delivering high-speed internet access through existing copper telephone lines. This solution is integral in supporting various applications, including voice, video, and data transmission, making it a versatile choice for service providers looking to upgrade their networks.

One of the key features of ADTRAN AHDSL2 is its ability to support asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL) technology, which allows for faster download speeds compared to upload speeds. This asymmetry is particularly beneficial for typical internet usage patterns where users often download more data than they upload. AHDSL2 can provide download speeds of up to 24 Mbps and upload speeds around 1 to 3 Mbps, depending on the line conditions and distance from the central office.

ADTRAN's AHDSL2 technology incorporates advanced capabilities such as auto-negotiation and improved line diagnostics. These features enable service providers to automatically adjust the settings for optimal performance based on the quality of the copper line. Furthermore, the built-in diagnostics tools help in the identification and troubleshooting of potential issues, reducing time and resources spent on maintenance and support.

The technology also supports the ITU G.992.3 and G.992.5 standards, which enhance the reach and efficiency of DSL services. It offers better performance in high-noise environments and allows for longer distances between the end-user and the central office, thus expanding the coverage area for broadband services.

Another significant aspect of ADTRAN AHDSL2 is its ability to operate over a range of frequencies, which minimizes interference from other services. By using frequency division multiplexing, the technology ensures that voice and data can be transmitted simultaneously without degradation of service quality.

ADTRAN AHDSL2 is also designed with scalability in mind, making it suitable for various deployment scenarios, whether in residential or commercial settings. Service providers can easily integrate this technology into their existing networks, ensuring a seamless upgrade path as customer demands for bandwidth continue to rise.

Overall, ADTRAN AHDSL2 stands out as a reliable and efficient solution for enhancing broadband services over copper infrastructure, with features that cater to both service provider needs and end-user demands for high-speed internet access. Its combination of advanced technology and easy integration makes it a compelling choice for operators looking to improve their service offerings.
