indicates that a valid pointer is not found in N consecutive frames
(where 8 ≤ N ≤ 10), or that N consecutive NDFs (“1001” pattern) are
detected (non-concatenated payloads).
³
H4-LOM (H4 - Loss Of Multiframe): For TU structured optical frames,
the H4-LOM alarm indicates that the system loss track of the H4 byte
multiframe indicator sequence.Not supported on the IQS-8140.
