Loopback Testing

Innovation

As network operators migrate their services to an all IP-infrastructure, they are faced with meeting stringent service standards set by governmental regulatory committees and high customer expectations. Costly on-site measurements along with unsatisfied customers who are faced with service disruptions are forcing operators and service technicians to adopt more remote and efficient methods to get their job done BEFORE their customers call to complain.

Loopback test methodologies have been proven to provide network operators with a cost-effective solution that earns them credibility with their subscribers while they experience significant savings in their CAPEX and OPEX. Tektronix Communications has implemented different IP-based loopback technologies that have equipped Operations and Field Technician groups with remote media quality measurements and fault isolation at key network segments and end-devices.
