4.2 Link Loss Return (LLR)
The fiber ports of GST-80X have been designed with an LLR function for troubleshooting a remote connection. LLR works
in conjunction with LLCF.
When LLR is enabled*, the port’s transmitter shuts down when its receiver fails to detect a valid receive link. LLR should
only be enabled on one end of the link and is typically enabled on either the unmanaged or remote device.
The diagram below shows a typical network configuration with a good link status using GST-80X for remote connectivity.
Note that LLR is enabled as indicated in the diagram.

LED unlit = no link
If one of the optical conductors is bad (as shown in the diagram box below), the converter with LLR enabled will return a
no-link condition to its link partner. With LLCF also default enabled, the no-link condition is carried forward to the switch/hub
where a trap is generated to the management station, and the administrator can then determine the source of the loss.

Notice:
The converter is shipped with the default LFP (LLCF/LLR) function disable.. This feature can also be turned on on-purpose.
If you are familiar with the network installation and for diagnostic purpose (i.e. check which end is broken), you can turn it on
and the converter will take effect immediately.. Otherwise, please remains it in the default position.
