For STS-N path switched ring applications, the bit error ratio (BER) of the specified STS-N signal exceeds the provisioned soft error threshold of 10-3 (default).
Alarm Data |
Value/Meaning |
---|---|
Severity Levels |
Critical (CR), Major (MJ), Minor (MN), Not Alarmed (NA), Not Reported (NR) SA Default: Critical (CR) NSA Default: Minor (MN) |
ASAP Type |
STS Ring Channel |
AID Type |
STS-1, STS-3c, STS-12c, STS-48c, or STS-192c Ring Channel |
Date |
Month/day/year that the condition was detected |
Time |
Hour:minute:second that the condition was detected |
Probable Cause |
T-BERP (incoming ring path signal BER thresholds exceeded) |
Effect on Service |
SA or NSA |
Alarm Entity Type |
STS1, STS3C, STS12C, STS48C, or STS192C |
Description |
inc. STS1 sig. failed (BER), inc. STS3C sig. failed (BER), inc. STS12C sig. failed (BER), inc. STS48C sig. failed (BER), or inc. STS192C sig. failed (BER) |
Likely Cause |
The near-end OC-N OLIU circuit pack failed, the far-end OLIU failed, the receive fiber failed if the OC-N is also reporting a failure, or a nonadjacent fiber failed in the receive path. An unprotected circuit pack failed - SA. A protected circuit pack failed - NSA. |
Visible Indication |
Lighted CR, MJ, or MN LED on the SYSCTL faceplate (when the severity level is provisioned to Critical, Major, or Minor, respectively) |
Action |
Proceed to Procedure 5-74: Clear "inc. STSN" conditions/alarms. |
