Abstract

A loop management device (26) for testing a communication path (40) for digital subscriber line (DSL) signals includes a loop access device that is coupled in the communication path between a DSL access multiplexer (DSLAM)(28) and a DSL modem (39) located at a customer premises. The loop management device (26) also includes a controller (30) coupled to the loop access device. The controller communicates with a remote test interface (36) that is coupled in the communication path (40) between the loop management device (26) and the DSL modem (39). The controller communicates with the remote test interface (36) using voice-band signals transmitted over the communication path (40) and tests the communication path (40) in collaboration with the remote test interface (36).
