Status Bar
Power level The received signal level per port in dBdsx for DSn signal or dBm for
PDH and optical signals. For Transport electrical interface, LOS on red
background indicates that there is no electrical signal power. For
optical interface, the following background color are used as power
level qualifier:
Green: Power level in range.
Yellow: Power level out-of-range.
Red with “LOS”: Loss of signal.
Red with “Power”: Power level is close to damage.
Gray: Invalid operational range value.
All except for Cable
