5.1 Loop Connections 
Optimux-XLT1 supports loop connections necessary for isolating a failure to a 
particular component of the transmission system. The loop connections are set 
using a management tool connected to one of the management ports at the rear of 
the unit. 
The available Optimux-XLT1 loop connections are shown in Figure 5-1 and the
