Tributary
A Tributary loopback loops the selected VT/Port back to the network (STS-1). The T1/E1 is looped back
through the STS-1 mapper. During this loopback, the corresponding DSX-1/E1 input is overwritten by the
outgoing DSX-1/E1 signal.

T1/E1 is completely de-multiplexed, looped back at the T1/E1 line interface unit (LIU) through the LIU
drivers and receivers, and multiplexed back onto the STS-1 network stream.
