LEDs 

There are 31 LEDs on the front panel, divided into 5 groups. For detailed LED 

description, refer to The Table 4.1-1. To verify operation, the LEDs should be interpreted 
in the following sequence: 

In the STATUS group, the PWR and READY green LEDs indicate the operation status 

of the device. 

In the CABLE group, there are five red, yellow and green LEDs which indicate the 

condition of the DOCSIS cable modem module. 

In the 10/100 BASE-T group, the 12 Ethernet status green LEDs indicate the status 

of the 4 Ethernet ports.  

In the E1/T1 ALARM group, eight red LEDs are provided for alarm indication, 4 for 

the local and remote E1 ports, and 4 for packet alarms.  

In the FAR-END UP Group Four LEDs indicate the status of far-end E1 uplink. These 

LEDs are also green. 

For detailed LED description, refer to The Table 4.1-1. 

2.3.3

 

Dip switch 

There are two Dip Switches on the front panel; the definitions are shown on Table 

4.3-1.

Grounding screw 

This is used to connect the chassis to the protective ground.  

2.4.2

 

System alarm 

The VQE1 can output system alarms for maintenance purposes. There are 2 alarm 

output pins, the Prompt Alarm and the Deferred Alarm, as shown in Fig. 2.4-2.
