inc. line sync. ref. OOL

Description

An off-frequency condition has been detected on the incoming OC-n line synchronization reference signal based on the frequency offset of the reference relative to the local oscillator.

Effect on Service

NSA

Alarm Entity Type

OCn

Description

inc. line sync. ref. OOL

Likely Cause

A synchronization problem at the upstream node may cause the TX interfaces (at the upstream node) to transmit off frequency. The alarm could also be the result of an undetected hardware fault on one or both of the local main circuit packs. An incoming signal fault that interferes with clock recovery could also cause the alarm.

Visible Indication

Lighted CR, MJ, or MN LED on the SYSCTL faceplate (when the severity level is provisioned to Critical, Major, or Minor, respectively) and a flashing Fault LED on the alarmed circuit pack.

Action

Proceed to Procedure 5-63: Clear "inc. line sync. ref. OOL" alarm.
