Troubleshooting T1/E1 Controllers

You can use the following methods to troubleshoot the T1/E1 controllers:

Running Bit Error Rate Testing for SAToP

Bit error rate testing (BERT) is supported on T1/E1 interfaces. You can run BERTs on 16 controllers out of
48 T1/E1 controllers at a time.
The interface module contains onboard BERT circuitry. With this, the interface module software can send
and detect a programmable pattern that is compliant with CCITT/ITU O.151, O.152, O.153 pseudo-random
and repetitive test patterns. BERT allows you to test cables and signal problems in the field.
When running a BERT test, your system expects to receive the same pattern that it is transmitting. To help
ensure this, two common options are available:
• Use a loopback somewhere in the link or network
• Configure remote testing equipment to transmit the same BERT test pattern at the same time
The following keywords list different BERT keywords and their descriptions.
