A passive remote loop-back method and apparatus for optical circuit verification is described. The apparatus may be remotely controlled through either of a dial-up or a data connection. The apparatus is adapted to: perform loop-back of received optical signals; verify status on loss of carrier; and, verify the status of its dual power supplies. The apparatus is also adapted to report alarm conditions by dialing a predetermined telephone number. The advantage is a versatile apparatus that may be monitored by a remote manager, and which automatically reports alarms using a dependable alternate communications medium.
