Internal Loop

The E1/T1 module can be set to an internal loop to test the connection between the E1/T1 port and the IP network (refer to Chapter 3). In this mode (E1/T1 only), data coming from the IP network is both looped back to the IP network and an AIS pattern is transmitted forward to the PBX connected to the E1/T1 port (see Figure 4-2).

➤To run a loopback test:

•Press the <Spacebar> on your keyboard to toggle between the values: Internal/External /Disable.

−Internal: Data received from the IP network side is looped back to the network transmit line. An unframed all ‘1’ code (AIS) is transmitted in the E1 Tx path toward the PBX. Incoming data from the PBX is ignored.

−External: Data received from the PBX at the receive E1 line is looped back to the E1 Tx path (toward the same PBX), and continues its way to the

IP network. Data coming from the IP network is ignored.

−Disable: No loopback. Regular operation.

Default value: Disable

External Loop

An external loop on IPmux-1E can be set to test the ISDN “S’ line (Figure 4-3). The test is performed on B channels only.
