ABSTRACT:
A coupler verification test circuit includes first and second circuits one of which is disposed at a head end of an optical fiber network and the other of which is disposed at a subscriber interface unit to be attached to the network when the head end is not operational. The subscriber interface circuit transmits instructions to a transceiver board in the subscriber interface unit for transmission to the network head end whereat the circuit thereat generates either no return signal, an acknowledgment return signal, or a default return signal. The test circuit at the subscriber interface unit then analyzes the return signal and visually indicates to a craftsman whether or not the transceiver board and other components of the SIU are operating correctly, e.g. whether or not the acknowledgement signal was returned and detected.
