DESCRIPTION
This cable lets you test the MT56DSU-S when a second DSU is not available. When the DSU generates a
signal, this cable “loops” the signal back to the DSU for comparison to the original signal sent. You can
order this cable (#45640100) from Multi-Tech, or build one using the instructions below. Refer to Chapter 4
for test procedures.
