Remote WinLink 1000 can be set to an internal loopback to test
connection between the local and remote units, the local E1/T1 port
and its connection to the local side user equipment. In this mode, data
coming from the local WinLink 1000 is looped back to it (see
Figure 5-

). This loopback is initiated from a management station connected to
the local unit.

Remote WinLink 1000 can be set to an external loopback to test the
remote E1/T1 port and its connection to the remote side user
equipment. In this mode, data coming from the remote user equipment
is looped back to it (see
