6.2 Loopback Tests

Vmux-2100 supports activation of the local and remote loopbacks. The purpose of these tests is to determine the source of a break in the data flow. The loopbacks are activated per E1/T1 port.

Local Loopback

Vmux-2100 can activate a local loopback to test the connection between the E1/T1 voice port and the local side PBX. In this mode, data coming from the PBX side is looped back (to the testing equipment). See Figure 6-4.
