Abstract
A telecommunications line test system wherein a digital telecommunications network is electronically sectionalized via at least one master test unit in combination with at least one remotely addressable field loopback unit whereby the defective line section is isolated by progressively looping back test data as transmitted from a master test unit. Each field loopback unit, when properly addressed, will loopback to both the near side and the far side of the line so as to enable a given loopback unit to be reset (inactivated) from either side of the line.
