All models: A break-in test jack that interrupts the signal

(Network Out)

coming from the network and allows it to be terminated by the

 

external test equipment.

 

 

EQPT In

Model 3161: A non-interruptive test jack that monitors the

(Equipment In)

signal toward the terminal equipment (DTE).

 

Models 3160, 3164: A break-in test jack that allows a signal to

 

be inserted toward the terminal equipment (DTE) by external

 

test equipment.

 

 

EQPT Out
