Cisco 7120 Series Overview

The Cisco 7120-AT3, Cisco 7120-AE3, and Cisco 7120-SMI3 WAN ports have one enabled LED and 
three status LEDs. The LEDs are in the same location and labeled the same on each model. After system 
initialization, the enabled LED goes on to indicate that the port has been enabled for operation. If the 
initialization fails for any reason, the enabled LED will not go on. The LEDs are shown in 

Figure 1-14

 

and described in 

Table 1-4

Green

On

Indicates the port has received an ATM cell.

RX CAR

Green

On

Indicates the port has detected a carrier on the receiver cable. For a 
fiber-optic interface, this means that light is detected, and a valid 
frame is detected.

RX ALM

Red

On

Indicates the router detected an alarm condition.
