FAULT ISOLATION and CORRECTION
If the transceiver fails, determine the answers to the following questions:
1.
Is the power LED on the transceiver illuminated?
NO
• Verify that the transceiver is installed properly in the AUI port and that the device is powered ON.
• Contact Technical Support at (800) 260-1312 or at (800) LAN-
WANS.
YES
• Proceed to step 2.
2.
Is the Link LED illuminated?
NO
• Check the fiber cables for proper connection. (If possible, try a different pair of fiber cables.)
• Contact Technical Support at (800) 260-1312 or at (800) LAN-
WANS.
YES
• Proceed to step 3.
3.
Is the fiber cable connected properly?
NO
• Verify that TX and RX cables on transceiver are connected to RX and TX ports, respectively, on each device.
• Contact Technical Support at (800) 260-1312 or at (800) LAN-
WANS.
YES
• Contact Technical Support at (800) 260-1312 or at (800) LAN-
WANS.
