About This Guide
What is in this guide
This guide provides general information about Stinger ADSL Annex A LIMs that have
the capability to support the ADSL2+ protocols. It identifies the LIM models with
ADSL2+ capability that are available for different Stinger chassis and describes how to
configure and monitor them. It also includes profile information, configuration
examples, and module specifications.
Note The LIMs identified in this guide can support the described ADSL2 and
ADSL2+ protocols when those capabilities are enabled through special Lucent
Technologies software licenses.
Warning Before installing your Stinger unit, be sure to read the safety instructions
in the Edge Access and Broadband Access Safety and Compliance Guide. For information
specific to your unit, see the “Safety-Related Electrical, Physical, and Environmental
Information”appendix in the Getting Started Guide for your Stinger unit.
What you should know

Overview
Stinger asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL) line interface modules (LIMs)
provide high-speed asymmetric data interfaces. These interfaces support data transfer
using the ANSI discrete multitone (DMT) and the following protocols:
■ ANSI T1.413
■ ITU-T G.992.1 Annex A (G.dmt)
■ ITU-T G.992.2 (G.lite)
ADSL Annex A LIMs with ADSL2+ capability also support the ADSL protocols and
related standards shown in Table 1-1.
Installing an ADSL LIM
Install an ADSL LIM in the same manner as other LIMs. See the Stinger Getting Started
Guide for your unit for details. After installation, the module must be configured
following the instructions in this guide.

Interpreting LIM status lights
Several status lights on the front panel of ADSL LIMs indicate the status of the
module and its ports. Figure 1-1 shows the front panel and status lights of a 72-port
ADSL LIM.
Note The front panel of the 48-port LIM has only 48 PORT lights at the bottom of
the panel. All other lights are identical on the 72-port and 48-port LIMs.

Interpreting LIM status lights
Figure 1-1. Stinger ADSL LIM (72-port LIM shown)
All status lights illuminate briefly upon startup or restart, then remain dark until the
module passes its power-on self test (POST). When the module passes the POST and
becomes operational, the ACTIVE light illuminates.
Table 1-3 explains the status lights on an ADSL LIM

Table 1-3. ADSL LIM status lights
Light Color Indication
STBY Orange The module is a designated spare. The control
module switches traffic to the module if one of
the other modules fails.
ACTIVE Green The module or port is fully operational and no
errors have been detected.
FAULT Orange The module failed to pass its POST.
BYPASS Orange The module is in bypass mode. (The module
redundancy feature is activated.)
PORT
(One for
each port)
Green The local and remote ends of the physical line
have achieved frame synchronization, and the
local end of the ATM link has achieved cell
delineation.
If the light is not illuminated, the port is inactive.
