Configurations Using Fiber Multiplexers
Use the loopback jack when customer premises DS1 wiring connects to an 
on-site fiber multiplexer (MUX) and allows wiring to the network interface point on 
the MUX to be remotely tested. This requires that ICSUs be used on DS1 wiring 
to the MUX.
Fiber MUXes can take the place of Interface termination feeds as shown in 
Figure 1-21
, Figure 1-22, Figure 1-23, and Figure 1-24. Test these spans using 
the same procedures as metallic spans. Note the following points:
1. Fiber MUXes may have loopback capabilities that can be activated by the 
service provider from the CO end. These may loop the signal back to the 
CO or back to the DS1 board. If the MUX provides the equivalent of a line 
loopback on the “problem” DS1 facility, this may be activated following a 
successful loopback jack test and used to isolate problems to the wiring 
between the loopback jack and the MUX.
2. Be aware that there are installations that use repeatered metallic lines 
between the MUX and the “dumb” block. Theses lines require DC power 
for the repeaters and this DC power is present at the “dumb” block 
interface to the CPE equipment. 
A loopback jack is required in this 
configuration to properly isolate and terminate the DC power
.
To check for the presence of DC, make the following 4 measurements at the 
network interface jack:
1. From Transmit Tip (T, Pin 5) to Receive Tip (T1, Pin 2)
2. From Transmit Ring (R, Pin 4) to Receive Ring (R1, Pin 4)
3. From Transmit Tip (T, Pin 5) to Transmit Ring (R, Pin 4)
4. From Receive Tip (T1, Pin 2) to Receive Ring (R1, Pin 4)
All measurements should read 0 (zero) volts DC. For pin numbers and pin 
designations, refer to 
Integrated Channel Service Unit (ICSU) Installation and 
Operation

LED Interpretation
The lighting and unlighting of LEDs indicates to the system user the status of 
various maintenance components in the system. LEDS are located on the 
attendant console, on all circuit packs in the switch cabinets and, optionally, on 
customer-designated voice terminals. The following LEDS are included in the 
system:
■ ‘‘TN798 Processor Circuit Pack LEDs’’
■ ‘‘Attendant Console LEDs’’
