Model 3088A Series Getting Started Guide

B • Specifications

 

 

Terminal (Green)

The Terminal LED glows solid under the following circumstances:

•3088A/CA with V.35 interface and 3088A/A with RS-232 interface: if the serial interface has asserted

DTR

•3088A/D with the X.21 interface

-Configured as DCE: Indicates that the “Control” signals have been asserted.

-Configured as DTE: Indicates that the “Indication” signals have been asserted

TM/ER (Yellow)

The Test Mode/Error (TM/ER) LED is used to indicate that a test mode is in progress or an error has been detected. It blinks once every second while a test mode is starting. It glows solid while a test mode is in progress. It blinks once if an error is detected either during a test mode, or in normal DSL operation.

LOS (Red) [Model /K]

The LOS LED blinks once per second to indicate either framing errors or clock slips. Clock slips are often caused by a mis-configured clock mode.

Link (Green)

The Link LED shows that there is an active physical connection to the Console.

Activity (Green)

The Activity LED shows that there is data being transferred through the Console connection. During a soft- ware upgrade procedure, if the Activity LED is on for an unusually long time, there is a problem with the upgrade, and the device should be restarted. The TFTP server should be checked (normal upgrades take about 10 seconds on a 100mbit link).

Configuration

Configuration is done with either externally accessible DIP switches, CLI or through the EOC (Embedded Operations Channel) from a Model 3096RC G.SHDSL concentration card.

Power and power supply specifications

The CPE comes with either an AC or DC power supply:

•The supply’s connection to the CPE is a 2.5 mm barrel receptacle with the center conductor positive.

•There is one fuse in the equipment rated at 250V, 500 mA, 2 sec.

•Rated voltage: 5 VDC

•Rated current: 1 A DC
