  • Page 4: Overview

    Overview ® The Metrobility Radiance 100Mbps Access Line Cards are the industry’s first media converters with the ability to reach across a wide area network (WAN) to communicate, test and reconfigure an unmanaged remote device, without reducing the available bandwidth to the customer site. This capability is accomplished through the employment of Metrobility’s revolutionary Radiance technology.
  • Page 5 The Radiance access line card provides the following key features: • Remote management using Metrobility’s unique Radiance technology which enables communication with an unmanaged remote device. • Complete Remote Monitoring (RMON) Group 1 Ethernet Statistics support. • Remote link testing capability that does not affect the customer’s available bandwidth.
  • Page 6: Installation Guide

    Installation Guide Follow the simple steps outlined in this section to install and start using the Radiance access line cards. NOTE: Electrostatic discharge precautions should be taken when handling any line card. Proper grounding is recommended (i.e., wear a wrist strap). Unpack the Line Cards Your order has been provided with the safest possible packaging, but shipping damage does occasionally occur.
  • Page 7: Dip Switches

    DIP Switches A bank of six DIP switches is located on the back of the card. Switches 1, 3, 5 and 6 allow you to select from several modes of operation. These switches are clearly marked on the card’s circuit board. Refer to the table below for the proper setting of the DIP switches.
  • Page 8: Auto-Negotiation

    Link Loss Carry Forward Link Loss Carry Forward (LLCF) is provided as an aid in troubleshoot- ing a remote connection. When LLCF is enabled, loss of the receive signal at the TX port prevents the FX port from transmitting an idle signal onto the cable.
  • Page 9: Step 3: Install The Line Card

    Far End Fault Far End Fault (FEF) is only applicable to the fiber optic port. FEF enables the locally managed access line card to detect a break in the remote card’s fiber port receiver. The remote card sends an alarm to the locally managed card if the remote card has FEF enabled and it loses its receive (RX) fiber link.
  • Page 10: Step 4: Connect To The Network

    • Slide the card in until the top and bottom edges of the front panel are flush and even with the top and bottom edges of the chassis. • To secure the line card to the chassis, turn the thumbscrew clockwise until it is snug.
  • Page 11 The singlemode (SM) connector supports a maximum segment length of 20, 40, 60, or 100 km, depending on the model. NOTE: To enable remote management, make sure the management (MAN) LED is ON after connecting the fiber cable to the remote access line card.
  • Page 12: User Guide

    User Guide This section contains information about the operating features of the Radiance access line cards. LED Indicators The Radiance access line cards provide several LEDs on the front panel for the visible verification of unit status and proper functionality. These LEDs can help with troubleshooting and overall network diagnosis and management.
  • Page 13: Default Software Settings

    Default Software Settings The following settings can only be changed via software commands. Bandwidth Allocation ... 100Mbps Maximum Burst Size ... 16K Loopback Mode ... Disabled Write Protect ... ReadWrite Port Enable/Disable ... Enabled Software Settings Five operational functions on the access line card can be modified only through software commands, either locally or remotely.
  • Page 14: Loopback Mode

    The maximum burst size can be adjusted to one of the following settings: 16, 32, 64, 128 or 256 kilobytes. Loopback Mode You can enable loopback on either port on the locally managed card or on the remote fiber port. The loopback function allows a port to return its incoming data back to the sender, while continuing to receive and transmit management packets.
  • Page 15: Remote Management Statistics

    Disabling a port stops the data flow to and from that port. Although data is neither sent nor received, the disabled port continues to accept, process and transmit management packets. However, if LLCF is enabled and the opposite port has no link, management packets will not be transmitted. Remote Management Statistics Through SNMP management, NetBeacon or WebBeacon, you can view Remote Monitoring (RMON) and Ethernet statistics for the Radiance access line card.
  • Page 16: Singlemode Fiber Optic Power Levels

    Singlemode Fiber Optic Power Monitors Through software , you can read the input and output power levels of the singlemode fiber optic port on the access line cards with diagnostic capabilities. Input Power Level The accuracy of the input power monitor is 1 dBm from -28 dBm to -12 dBm. The accuracy is 2 dBm from -31 dBm to -29 dBm.
  • Page 17: Link Loss Carry Forward (Llcf)

    Link Loss Carry Forward (LLCF) The access line cards incorporate an LLCF function for troubleshooting a remote connection. When LLCF is enabled, the ports do not transmit a link signal until they receive a link signal from the opposite port. The diagram below shows a typical network configuration with a good link status using access line cards for remote connectivity.
  • Page 18: Link Loss Return (Llr)

    Link Loss Return (LLR) The fiber optic ports of the access line cards have been designed with an LLR function for troubleshooting a remote connection. When LLR is enabled, the fiber port’s transmitter shuts down if its receiver fails to detect a valid receive link. LLR should only be enabled on one end of the link and is typically enabled on either the unmanaged or remote device.
