Verilink SCC 2130 User Manual

With a loopback plug in the network port, any customer equipment
connected to the SCC 2130 should see a loopback condition. If the
customer equipment is capable of reporting errors, it should
indicate that no errors are being received.

A T1 loopback plug can be made by taking a male RJ-45 connector
and placing two short jumper wires where a cable would normally
go. One jumper is placed from pin one to pin five, the other jumper
connects pin two to pin four. See

Figure 5-5

for

a drawing of a T1

loopback plug.

NOTE: When using a T1 loopback plug it may be necessary to

temporarily change the timing selection in the IDCSU. If the

IDCSU is set to recover network clock it will be trying to

recover a clock it is trying to recover, the clock frequency will

drift. For this test, set the IDCSU clock source to Internal.
