OOPBACK

PERATION

HDSL4 has a family of loopback options for analyzing circuit functionality. The loopback signal is transmitted
and returned to the sending device for comparison. This allows you to verify the integrity of the HDSL4 channels
to the H4TU-C, the H4TU-C DSX-1 interface, and the DS1 channels to the customer.

Loopback options include:

•

Generic Loopback (GNLB) options, including the SmartJack (SMJK) option (see

Table 16 on page 51

)

•

A3LB Addressable Repeater Loopback command (see

Table 17 on page 52

)

•

A5LB Addressable Repeater Loopback command (see

Table 18 on page 53

)

Loopback commands can be initiated by:

•

Selecting the loopback type using the MODE and SEL pushbuttons on the H4TU-C front panel or the manual
loopback (LBK) pushbutton on the H4TU-R front panel

•

Selecting the loopback type from the Monitor menu when connected to the craft port of the H4TU-C or
H4TU-R

•

Entering the loopback code (exceptions are COLB and RULB) into the test equipment connected to the
H4TU-C or H4TU-R

Figure 28.

Loopback Summary

ADC HDSL4 supports multiple loopbacks, but a single loopback is the preferred method. HDSL4
automatically rejects activation of closed loop looopbacks. For example, an NREM and CREM
cannot be activated at the same time.
