Configure the test set for the test circuit type you created:
Step 7
VC4 or VC4-nc—If you are testing a VC4 circuit or a VC4-nc circuit on an STM-N card, you must
•
have a direct optical interface to the ONS 15454 SDH. Set the test set for STM-N. For information
about configuring your test set, consult your test set user guide.
VC3—If you are testing a clear channel E3/DS3I, you must have a patch panel or a direct E3/DS3I
•
interface to the ONS 15454 SDH. Set the test set for clear channel E3/DS3I. For information about
configuring your test set, consult your test set user guide.
VC12—If you are testing an E1, you must have a patch panel or a direct E1 interface to the
•
ONS 15454 SDH. Set the test set for E1. For information about configuring your test set, consult
your test set user guide.
• VC11—If you are testing a VC11 circuit on an STM-N or MRC-12 card, you must have a direct
optical interface to the ONS 15454 SDH. Set the test set for STM-N. For information about
configuring your test set, consult your test set user guide.
Verify the integrity of all patch cables that will be used in this test by connecting one end to the test set

transmit (Tx) connector and the other end to the test set receive (Rx) connector. If the test set does not
run error-free, check the cable for damage and check the test set to make sure it is set up correctly before
going to the next step.
Create a physical loopback at the circuit destination card. To do so, attach one end of a patch cable to

the destination port's transmit (Tx) connector; attach the other end to the port's receive (Rx) connector.
Step 10 At the circuit source card:
Connect the transmit (Tx) connector of the test set to the receive (Rx) connector on the circuit source
