This Appendix describes the use and operation of
loopback control code sequences used in
ADTRAN’s HDSL system.
Loopback control codes are governed by the HTU-C
(and HRE(s) if deployed). Two types of HTU-Cs
exist which enable two different sets of loopback
codes: Standard or Enhanced loopbacks. The
Standard loopbacks are those that have been
contained in ADTRAN’s HDSL product family
beginning with 2
nd
Generation products. The
Enhanced loopbacks are contained in selected
ADTRAN HTU-C units. The following table
denotes whether the HTU-C (part number) contains
Standard or Enhanced loopback capabilities.

The HREs and HTU-Rs’ loopback capabilities are
controlled from the central office unit (HTU-C).
NOTE:
If the HTU-C on a circuit contains Standard
loopbacks, then refer to subsection 1 of this
Appendix to determine its capabilities. If
the HTU-C on a circuit contains Enhanced
loopbacks, then refer to subsection 2 of this
Appendix to determine its loopback
capabilities.
A-1. STANDARD LOOPBACKS
This subsection describes operation of the HDSL
system in detection of in-band and ESF facility data
link loopback codes. The operation of the loopback
commands in the ADTRAN HDSL system is
compliant with the recommendation to ANSI
recorded in T1E1.4/92. The HDSL network
loopback points described below are shown in
Figures A-1 and A-2
.
HTU-C loopback is a regenerative loopback of the
DSX-1 signal toward the network.
HTU-R loopback is a regenerative loopback of the
DS1 signal toward the network. This loopback is in
addition to a separate Smartjack loopback. Separate
activation sequences are provided for the HTU-R
and the Smartjack loopback initiation. The HDSL
loopbacks are implemented such that the
downstream HDSL elements (toward the customer)
remain synchronized.
