What's your question?
Link monitor means no physical connection to the switch, which means you card will not work. Reason? A lot of, including broken cable, improper cable (MM instead of SM and vice versa), bad connection (Tx to Tx...), disabled port on the switch...

I apologize for my ignorance.

I was looking for the status of one of our OSA card under OSA advanced
facilities under HMC. For one of their PCHPID belonging to OSA shows the
port status as 'LINK MONITOR'

When I checked with my network team if their switch sees the MAC address of
my OSA port but they don't see it.

 From the physical cabling perspective what do I need to do?
