    Hi @Gel ,

    This log message indicates that the incoming optical signal (Rx Power) on Port 28 is too strong. In detail, the transceiver has an alarm threshold of -2 dBm, and the current incoming signal is -2 dBm, is meeting this maximum limit. This commonly happens on short cable runs using long-range optics, SFP transceiver issue. Here is what you can do to resolve this issue:

    • Verify Transceiver Compatibility: Ensure that a Zyxel-certified transceiver is installed in the device.
