The test is to check the card insertion loss is within range for both multiplexing and de-multiplexing
directions for the used channels.
Test procedures:
Test can be performed by using the instantaneous measurement from NMS for certain vendors or by
manual measurements in others..

1- Provisioning services
Objective:
To confirm that services can be provisioned, de-provisioned and modified without any issue.
Test procedures:
Create all possible services as per traffic matrix and per the procedure given in the vendor service
provisioning document. Modify and delete services.
Objective:
To verify the ability of the ring to compensate the additional losses within the designed power margin.
Etisalat demands minimum 5dB margin in each span of the ring.
Test procedures:
Simulate link losses using the appropriate attenuator value to be applied on the ring. Insert 5dB
attenuation in each span simultaneously and run a service test including all spans.

Test Setup:
Test procedures:
Run a test service. Using a variable attenuator apply a slight attenuation across the ring path carrying
the test service.
Expected: Check that gain of the amplifier is automatically adjusted to compensate the additional
attenuation. No traffic impact should be observed.
Objective:
Test Setup:
Test procedures:
The data network performance analyzer adjusts the length of the frame from small to large till a
maximum length that can be processed by the equipment normally.
Test procedures:
Run test service on the longest route. Measure latency by Y.1564 test. Run the test for main and
protection routes.
Test Setup:
Test procedures:
For the protected services perform an O-SNCP switching by Command
Fill in the table with the test results.
Repeat the same test by breaking the fiber at different points in the equipment and ring.
7-Alarm Reporting
Objective:
To verify the correct alarm reporting of the equipment on the ports and along the path in case of faults
at equipment and NMS levels.
Test procedures:
Create different types of test services on selected interfaces. Simulate various type of faults i.e LOS,
single direction faults and performance related faults. Check alarms transponders and different layers
of the network.

To check the stability of network for different type of services over 24H period.
Test Setup:
Test procedures:
Create different type of services as per traffic matrix and test at least one service for SDH interface
and one GE service with highest possible rate over a period of 24hrs.
Expected: No error or packet loss should be observed over the test period.
