Link Status tab in the Diagnostics menu
The actual link, connection and signal bandwidth status of the UBEX matrix can be overviewed in the Link
Status tab. The details of the listed information are the following:

1
Action buttons
Identify the device
: clicking on the icon makes the four front panel LEDs
blink in green for 10 seconds. The feature helps to
identify the device itself in the rack shelf.
Restart the device: clicking on the icon makes restarting the endpoint.
2
Logical device
ID (endpoint
number)
Logical device ID means the MMU assigns a number to the endpoints ordered
by the discovery. For example the first endpoint gets the 1 (appears as X1), the
second one the 2 (appears as X2).
The listed endpoint devices can be sorted by clicking on the
icon.
3
Device name
The name of device which is composed of the
UBEX
word and the
last six
characters of the MAC address
.
The listed endpoint devices can be sorted by clicking on the
icon.
4
Operation Mode
The current operation mode of the endpoint device (transmitter / receiver /
transceiver). The operation mode can be changed in the drop-down menu.
This
operation requires restarting the device.

Label
The device label of the endpoint. It can be changed by clicking on the
icon.
See the details in the
section in case of the TX or TRX
operation modes and in the
section in case of RX or TRX
operation modes.
The listed endpoint devices can be sorted by clicking on the
icon.
6
Aggregated BW
The aggregated bandwidth which are used by the endpoint device. It can be
10.00 Gbps
(in case of only one SFP+ port is used) or
20.00 Gbps
(in case of both
SFP+ ports are used).
7
TX BW
The current bandwidth of the transmitted AV signal grouped by the SFP+ ports.
8
RX BW
The current bandwidth of the received AV signal grouped by the SFP+ ports.
9
FCS Error
Frame check sequence error. If the
icon appears, there are FCS errors in the
connection. See the possible solutions for the problem in the
chapter.
q
Signal Quality
The meter shows the current signal quality in percent.
w
Uptime
Uptime of the link connection.
e
LLDP Neighbor
System
The type of the L3 network switch where the endpoint device is connected to.
r
LLDP Neighbor
Port
The ID number and the MAC address of the port in the network switch.
t
Link Type
The SFP+ interface between the endpoint and the network switch.
y
Filters

of a larger UBEX matrix. The function contains the following filter categories:
▪
