Loss Of Power

If the STHI is having power problems, check the power delivery system
(power cable, power outlet, circuit breaker, fuse).

Failure to Link on Enabled Port

Check that the Token Ring devices at either end of the cable are
powered-up.

Verify that the network cable’s connectors have the proper pinouts. Refer
to Section 2.2.2, TCU and COM Ports.

Check the cable for continuity. A variety of tools are available for this test,
depending on the media being used.

Check that the cables meet specifications for dB loss as described in
Appendix A, TPIM Specifications.
