Troubleshooting
CSX200 Family User’s Guide 209
• Verify the use of proper cabling for the HDSL connections. Category 3 or Category 5
Unshielded Twisted Pair copper wiring is required. One pair (2 wires) for Fractional T1, two
pair (4 wires) for Full T1. The presence of bridged taps and multiple wire segments connected
together to form the loop may reduce the maximum distance usable between the Remote and
Local devices. Wire gauge has an impact on the distance which can be supported as well. The
maximum distance is 12,000 feet using 24 AWG wiring.
• Verify the gauge and condition of the wire. A trained line technician may be necessary to
determine this.
• Verify that the distance between the Remote and Local units is less than 12,000 Feet.
Status 2 (STS2) LED is AMBER
WPIM-T1, WPIM-E1, or WPIM-DI Installed in CSX200
The device is in Yellow alarm mode. A Yellow alarm indicates that the CSX200 is
receiving proper framing from the Telco, but the Telco is not receiving proper framing.
• Check for faulty or incorrect cabling between Telco and CSX200.
• Request that the Telco verify the configuration and operation of the circuit.
Status 2 (STS2) LED is GREEN

• Verify the cabling being used between the CSX200 and the CSU/DSU.
• Check the CSU/DSU for proper operation.
