Basic iDSL and T1/E1 test modes

Model 3196RC T-DACS offer a variety of test modes for individual G.HSDSL and T1/E1 ports that are of out- standing value when initially installing or troubleshooting connections on the iDSL or T1/E1 side.

iDSL port test modes

Diagnostics loops for the 3196RC iDSL ports include:

•Local loop

•Remote loop

•Line loop

Local loop

This loop tests the operation of the selected DSL port. Data transmitted to the port is looped at the DSL port. For example, as shown in figure 52, if DSL port 1 is mapped to T1/E1 port 1, data arriving at the T1/E1 port and passed by the DACS to DSL port 1, is looped and sent back to T1/E1 port 1.
