Testing a loopback jack without a smart jack

When the loopback jack is added to a span that does not contain a smart jack, the span is

divided into 2 sections: from the MM710 to the loopback jack and from the loopback jack to the

central office (CO). Section 2 includes the short cable from the loopback jack to the dumb block

demarcation point (part of the loopback jack). This cable is the only part of Section 2 that is part

of customer premises wiring. It is not covered in the loopback jack’s loopback path. See

Figure 42 and Figure 43.
