NPE Crosstalk Test (#9)
One or more NPEs reside on each circuit pack with a TDM Bus interface. The
NPE controls port connectivity and gain, and provides conferencing functions on
a per-port basis. The NPE Crosstalk Test verifies that this port’s NPE channel
talks on the selected time slot and never crosses over to time slots reserved for
other connections. If the NPE is not working correctly, one-way and noisy
connections may be observed. If a secondary data module is assigned, it is
tested after the primary data module. If either test fails, both data modules are
taken out of service This test usually runs only during the Long Test Sequence
and takes about 20 to 30 seconds to complete.

1. Check the port status. Use the
display port
PCSSpp
command to determine the station
extension of the port. Use the
station status
command to determine the service state of the port.
If the service state indicates that the port is in use,
then the port is unavailable for this test. You must
wait until the port is idle.
If the service state indicates that the port is in use,
then the port is unavailable for this test. You must

2. If the port status is idle, then retry the command at
one-minute intervals a maximum of five times.
3. If the test continues to abort, escalate the problem.
