The settings of the transmission network are Contact the maintenance engineers of the
not modified, transmission network to rectify the fault.
Step 5 Check whether the transmission network is normal. On the BSC side, perform the local and
remote loopback tests to check whether the transmission network is normal.
l To perform the local loopback test on the BSC side, right-click the GEIUB on the BSC6000
Local Maintenance Terminal, and then choose Interface Board Port Loopback from the
shortcut menu. In the displayed dialog box, select Local Loopback from the Loop Mode
drop-down list. On the BTS side, check whether the LIU LED on the DTMU panel is off. If
the LIU LED is off, you can infer that the transmission is normal. If the LIU LED is on, you
can infer that the transmission is abnormal.
l To perform the remote loopback tests on the BSC side, right-click the GEIUB on the
BSC6000 Local Maintenance Terminal, and then choose Interface Board Port Loopback
from the shortcut menu. In the displayed dialog box, select Remote Loopback from the Loop
Mode drop-down list.
