T1/E1 Loopback
Loopback is provided for any enabled T1 or E1 port. As shown in Figure 38 and Figure 39, the choices
are:
• No Loopback (default)
• External (local)
• External (remote)
• Internal
All loopback configurations control the loop at the Line Interface integrated circuit, which is the
device wired directly to the front panel ports.
External loopback modes are used in conjunction with an external test source. The designation of
‘local’ or ‘remote’ refers to where the loopback is occurring relative to the location where the loopback
is implemented. That is, on the radio being accessed, if External (remote) is selected, this loops the
signal back at the remote radio interface back towards the local radio. Likewise, if External (local) is
selected, the signal loops back at the local interface towards the remote radio (Figure 40 and Figure
41).
Figure 40 External (remote) loopback
Figure 41 External (local) loopback
When a local T1/E1 port is configured for External (remote) loopback, it is the same as configuring the
remote radio for External (local) loopback.
Note: Only one Internal loopback can be enabled at any time.
