Installation Guide

Follow the simple steps outlined in this section to install and start using your Radiance 10Mbps single interface line card.

NOTE: Electrostatic discharge precautions should be taken when handling any line card. Proper grounding is recommended (i.e., wear a wrist strap).

1Unpack the Line Card

Your order has been provided with the safest possible packaging, but shipping damage does occasionally occur. Inspect your line card carefully. If you discover any shipping damage, notify your carrier and follow their instructions for damage and claims. Save the original shipping carton if return or storage of the unit is necessary.

2Set the Jumper

All Radiance 10Mbps single interface line cards, excluding the R111- 12, incorporate LLCF (Link Loss Carry Forward) functionality as an aid in troubleshooting a remote connection. The jumper configures the LLCF operation.*
