AT-LX3800U Multi-Service Transport System Installation and Maintenance Guide
The line cards are hot swappable into and out of the system. Each line
card can only be used in its dedicated slot.
Each AT-LX3811/x line card contains one SFP transceiver slot.
To install an AT-LX3811/x line card, refer to “Installing an AT-LX3811/x
Line Card” on page 50.

Chapter 1: Overview
AT-LX3801 Blank Slot Covers
The AT-LX3800U chassis is shipped with eight AT-LX3801 Blank Slot
Covers in place. The blank slot cover protects the fiber optic connectors
on the backplane from becoming dirty, and helps maintain proper air flow
through the chassis. A blank slot cover is shown in Figure 5.

Figure 5. AT-LX3801 Blank Slot Cover
Note
Allied Telesyn strongly recommends that a blank slot cover be
inserted in any slot that does not contain a functioning line card.
To install a blank slot cover that was removed from the chassis, refer to
“Installing an AT-LX3801 Blank Slot Cover” on page 55.

LEDs
The AT-LX3800U provides two groups of LEDs, one group for each line
card and one group for the system.
Line Card LEDs Each line card has six LEDs, as shown in Figure 6.
Figure 6. Line Card LEDs
The line card LEDs include a RDY (Ready) LED that provides information
about the overall operation of the line card, and two groups marked TRIB
and LINE. The TRIB LEDs provide information about the tributary side of
the line card (the operation of the SFP), and the LINE LEDs display
information about the line side of the line card (the operation of the RX and
TX Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) ports).
124
The LEDs are described in the following tables:
The RDY LED is described in Table 2.
The tributary side TX and RX LEDs are described in Table 3 on
page 24.
The line side TX and RX LEDs are described in Table 4 on page 25.
The line side Sync LED is described in Table 5 on page 27.
Table 2 describes the RDY LED on the tributary side.

State Description
Flashing green Power is on, but the card is in the wrong slot.
Note that when a new version of the AT-S65
management software is being downloaded, the
RDY LED may flash on all line cards until the
downloading is complete.
Solid green Power is on and the card is in the correct slot.
Off The line card is not receiving any power.
23
Chapter 1: Overview
Note
When you install or reinstall a line card, the AT-S65 management
software recognizes this change within 20 seconds.
The operation of the tributary side TX and RX LEDs is affected by the
status of the Missing Link feature in the AT-S65 management software.

AT-LX3800U Multi-Service Transport System Installation and Maintenance Guide
Management Connections
The AT-LX3800U chassis provides two management connections to the
preinstalled AT-S65 management software:
RS-232 terminal port for local (out-of-band) management
10/100Base-TX Ethernet port for remote management using Telnet
Terminal Port You can use the terminal port to establish a local (out-of-band)
management session with the chassis to configure parameters and also
view information about the operating of the system and line cards. You
establish a local management session with the switch by connecting either
a terminal, or a personal computer with a terminal emulation program, to
the port.
The terminal port has a DIN-8 style connector. A management cable is
supplied with the chassis.
10/100Base-TX
Ethernet Port
The terminal port is set to the following specifications:
Baud rate: 115200 bps
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
You can use the AT-S65 management software to change the terminal
port settings.
You can also manage the AT-LX3800U chassis from any workstation on
your network through the 10/100Base-TX Ethernet port using Telnet.

AT-LXPWR Power Supply Module
The AT-LX3800U chassis is shipped with one AT-LXPWR power supply
preinstalled in slot A, and one empty slot (B) for an optional redundant
power supply (RPS). Two power supply versions, AC and DC, are
available for the AT-LX3800U chassis, as described below. Both slots
support any combination of AC and DC power supplies.
When two power supplies are installed, one of them works in standby
mode while the other one provides full power to the chassis. If one power
supply fails, the remaining power supply provides all the power to the
system, preventing a system failure.
