    DTE and Loop (LL) Test Description The DTE & L test splits the DSU III AR into two separate DTE and loop interface sections and then loops the receive data of each interface back to its respective transmit data. The DTE & L test provides a bidirectional loopback at the DSU/CSU.

    The L (RT) test allows the loop interface and a major portion of the DTE interface for the local DSU III AR to be tested from the remote site over the actual communication circuit. Figure 11-7 illustrates the loopback point and the signal paths for this test.

    ADTRAN DSU/CSU units will operate in this configuration. ADTRAN does not recommend the tail circuit mode due to the potential for clock slippage and data loss when using this configuration. Moreover, further problems can occur when each DDS circuit is using a different master clock source and will require additional hardware called a tail cir- cuit buffer to reduce the risk of data overruns and clock slips.
