7.7.1 E1 APS Testing
This function measures the Automatic Protection Switching (APS) limits of the network. APS applies the Multiple E1 Links and
enables network elements to re-route traffic to a backup circuit in the event of network failure or problems.
APS Test Procedure:
The UX400 unit should be connected to a transmission system to ensure that the switching time is measured for the
service transported by the E1 links
Ensure that no errors or alarms are present on the transmission system because this will impact the measurement
The measurement will be triggered by an Alarm Indication Signal (AIS)
The UX400 measures how long the AIS event remains present after the event is first recognized and will continue to
measure the total disruption time in the event of multiple disruptions
Repeat:
When set to ON, the UX400 will continuously measure APS and keep a record of the Current, Maximum and Minimum
disruption times measured.
