[c-nsp] c6500 Low alarms on optics

["Rolf Hanßen"]

Hi,

what kind of optics is that ?

The readings rely on the optics used.
Here an output of a system with some OEM LR optics and China DWDM:

                                           Optical   Optical
           Temperature  Voltage  Current   Tx Power  Rx Power
Port       (Celsius)    (Volts)  (mA)      (dBm)     (dBm)
---------  -----------  -------  --------  --------  --------
Te4/1       -63.0 --    0.00      35.5      -1.3      -5.5
Te4/2        26.1       0.00      26.1      -2.3      -7.1
Te4/3       -30.2 --    0.00      41.6      -2.8      -4.1
Te4/4        27.1       0.00      32.5      -2.1      -3.9
Te8/1        62.5 +     0.00     101.6       2.1      -9.6
Te8/2        87.2 ++    0.00      61.1      -1.2      -9.0
Te8/3        35.4       0.00     159.8      -3.5      -1.8
Te8/4       104.0 ++    0.00      67.8      -0.8      -3.0
Te9/1        48.3       0.00      91.2       1.3     -11.0
Te9/2        66.3 +     0.00      90.2       0.2      -6.7
Te9/3        57.6       0.00      67.4       1.9     -14.8
Te9/4        34.3       0.00     374.5       0.5 +   -16.2 --

I am quite sure the Xenpaks neither have -63 nor 104 degree Celsius. ;)

kind regards
Rolf
