DS1/T1 CPE loopback jack
This section provides information on how to install and use a DS1 loopback jack to test the DS1
span between the Avaya Server or Gateway and the network interface point. The loopback jack
is required when DC power is at the interface to the MM710 media module.
Note:
Do not remove the loopback jack after installation. It should always be available
Note:
for remote tests of the DS1 span.
Note:
For G450 Media Gateway systems, the channel service unit (CSU) is integrated
Note:
within the MM710 Media Module. This means that there is no need for a separate
external device. The loopback jack isolates the MM710 internal CSU from the DC
power and properly loops the DC span power.
