2.5 - Tributary Tests

These tests are to be done on both ends of the link.
Using a BER analyzer with G821 capability, test all used 2 Mbit/s access.
BER Analyzer Settings :
•
Transmit to Receive test
• 2 Mbit/s
•
Internal Clock
•
PRBS : 2
•
120 Ohm balanced, or 75 Ohm unbalanced depending on IDU configuration.
All used tributaries are to be tested one by one :
•
Click on the button
Tributaries". The tributary screen appears.
•
Verify that the tributary under test is configured in normal mode (N), with active service
(A), and no loopback (blank button).
•
All other tributaries should be unconnected and configured as inverted (I)
•
Normally there should be a local tributary alarm.
•
Connect a 2 Mbit/s BER analyzer on the tributary input. Be sure to use a cable in the same
impedance (refer to "Interface" indication). The tributary alarm should be now cleared.
•
Click on the loopback button to have access to loopback configuration screen, and select a
remote loopback for the tributary under test. (For loopback procedure refer to Chapter 3,
section 3.2.4).
•
Verify on the BER analyzer that there is no error occurred during one minute
•
Once the test has been done, disconnect the cable, and change Data alarm in invert mode
(I), and remove remote loopback for this tributary.
•
Repeat this test for all used tributaries.
