Attaching Network Interface Cables to the ACIP
Attaching Network Interface Cables to the ACIP
The ACIP interfaces are full duplex. You must use the appropriate ATM interface cable to connect
the ASIP to your TeraLink 1000, either directly, or through an external ATM network.
Connect cables to the ACIP as shown in Figure 10.

Warning
Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from the aperture ports of the single-mode
products when no fiber cable is connected. Avoid exposure and do not stare into open apertures.
Using LEDs to Check ACIP Status
The ACIP has three status LEDs on its faceplate (see Figure 11).
Figure 11 ACIP LEDs (Partial Faceplate View, Horizontal Orientation)
Following are the functions of the ACIP LEDs:
• Enabled—When on, indicates that the ACIP is enabled for operation; however, the interface ports
might not be functional or enabled.
• RX cells —When on, indicates that the ACIP has received an ATM cell. This LED will flicker in
normal operation, indicating traffic.
• RX carrier —When on, indicates that the ACIP has detected carrier on the RX cable. For a
fiber-optic interface, this means simply that light is detected.
