User Manual The device is a remote device. The ALS function is disabled. No E1 local/remote loopback. Unmask all E1 LOS alarm.
User Manual Chapter 5 Basic Connection and Typical Application 5.1 Basic Connection 5.1.1 Connect the optical interface Insert the well-prepared fiber patch cord into the optical interface on the front panel of the device. For device adopting optical transceivers M, S1, S2 or S3, the optical interface connection pattern is shown in Figure 5-1.
User Manual Note: Only inter-connection of optical transceiver SS13 and SS15 and inter-connection of optical transceiver SS23 and SS25 are allowed. Same type of optical transceivers can not communicate. If the connection is correct, and there is receiving optical signal, the LOS alarm indicator on the front panel of the device will turn OFF after the device being electrified.
