Payload Loopback Test and Line Loop Test

A T3 Payload Loopback commands the DSU to loop the received T3 signal back to the remote after 
the network framer circuit. The remote site is responsible for test pattern generation and checking. 
Payload loopback tests everything on the network side up to and including the unit. It re-generates 
framing and corrects bipolar violations. 

A T3 Line Loop commands the DSU to loop the received T3 signal back to the remote at the 
network interface. The remote site is responsible for test pattern generation and checking. See 
Figure.

Note

Remote units cannot place master units in test.
