The Astricom Loopback
Device is a cost effective method
of diagnosing problems with basic
rate ISDN lines. When called,
the Loopback Device places a loop
between transmit and receive in
the B channel/s to return speech,
data & tones.
Simple
Installation and Actvation
The Loopback Device simply plugs
into the NT unit and may be called
from any speech or data terminal
(phone, router, video conferencing
unit etc). When called from a
hand held test telephone, it can
loop back a bit error rate test
pattern allowing end-to-end line
quality verification.
Flexible
Configuration Options
A Windows software application
is provided on CD ROM enabling
simple configuration of the Loopback
Device, to accept the following
different call types:-
- Any call
- Calls
from a particular number (CLI)
- Calls
to a particular MSN (Multiple
Subscriber Number)
- Calls
containing a particular Subaddress
- Speech
calls only
- Data
calls only

The
device may also be configured to
loop back calls immediatley or after
a programmed delay. The default
setting is to loop back any call
received immediatley.
LED status indicators provide information
at the remote site, including active
bearer (B) channels, line power
& synchronisation.
If Loopback devices are dispatched
to all remote sites, they may be
called outside hours by an automatic
call generation system to gather
complete network management status
information.
Summary
The low cost Loopback device from
Astricom is the perfect tool to
ensure and prove reliable operation
of ISDN basic rate lines from anywhere,
at any time.
