MAC Address This is the LAN interface MAC (Media Access Control) address unique to your GPON
Device. The MAC address uses six pairs of hexadecimal notation and follows an
industry standard that ensures no other adapter has the same address.
Transceiver Status
Temperature This displays the transceiver’s temperature in Celsius. The normal range is 0-70
degrees.
Voltage This displays the transceiver’s voltage in Volts. The normal range is 3.13-3.47 Volts.
Bias Current This displays the transceiver’s bias current in mA. The normal range is 4-50 mA.
Optical Tx Power This displays the transceiver’s optical transmitting power in dBm. The normal range is
.5 to 5 dBm.
Optical Rx Power This displays the transceiver’s optical receiving power in dBm. The normal range is -6
to -28 dBm.
System Status
System Uptime This field displays how long the GPON Device has been running since it last started up.
The GPON Device starts up when you turn it on, when you restart it (Maintenance >
Tools > Restart), or when you reset it.
CPU Usage This field displays what percentage of the GPON Device’s processing ability is currently
used. When this percentage is close to 100%, the GPON Device is running at full load,
and the throughput is not going to improve anymore. If you want some applications to
have more throughput, you should turn off other applications.
Memory Usage This field displays what percentage of the GPON Device’s memory is currently used.
Usually, this percentage should not increase much. If memory usage gets close to
100%, the GPON Device is probably becoming unstable. Restart it (see Section 5.10
on page 25, or turn it off for a few seconds.
Interface Status
Interface This column identifies the interface on the GPON Device.
Status This field displays Up when the interface has a connection and Down when it does
not.
Rate This field displays the connection speed of the WAN interface’s PON connection when it
is connected. This field displays the connection speed and duplex for a connected LAN
interface.
