  • Method for testing an object in a telecommunications system
    Patent number: 6526124
    Abstract: In a telecommunications system, an object having an incoming side and an outgoing side is tested using a plurality of test components allocated in parallel for the incoming and outgoing sides of the object. The in-parallel allocated test components perform testing routines for the incoming and outgoing sides of the object. A main test component is connected to each of the in-parallel allocated test components, and equivalently controls operations of the in-parallel allocated test components. The resulting test structure for testing the incoming and outgoing sides of the object, is symmetric.
