What it is

The JDSU T BERD 6000 A Network Test Platform is a compact network test platform for communications testing and measurement.[1][2]

The JDSU T BERD 6000 A Network Test Platform is a field-oriented instrument with modular test capability for optical and packet-network measurements.[1]

How it works

The JDSU T BERD 6000 A Network Test Platform uses a modular form factor with application modules and plug-in physical interface modules to add or replace test functions.[1]

The JDSU T BERD 6000 A Network Test Platform includes built-in optical test functions, a touchscreen interface, USB and Ethernet ports, and an option for optical talk-set communication with remote units along the fiber.[1]

Where it fits in the process flow

The JDSU T BERD 6000 A Network Test Platform is designed for use across the network lifecycle from installation to maintenance of fiber networks.[1]

Applications

The JDSU T BERD 6000 A Network Test Platform supports fiber-optic testing, Ethernet testing, SONET and SDH testing, TCP and UDP testing, IP video testing, and optical loss and return-loss measurements.[1]

The JDSU T BERD 6000 A Network Test Platform is used for multimode and single-mode OTDR work, FTTx and PON testing, CWDM OTDR testing, dispersion testing, and service qualification on Ethernet links from low rates to 10 Gb/s.[1]

Frequently asked questions

What optical test functions are built into the platform?

The platform includes built-in visual fault locator, power meter, optical return loss, and loss test set functions, with a video inspection scope option.[1]

What network layers and services does the platform test?

The platform supports testing from the physical layer to the services layer, and it can test Ethernet and SONET and SDH at the same physical test port.[1]

What upgrade mechanism does the platform use?

The platform uses a modular design that allows test capabilities to be added or replaced by changing plug-in modules and optics on the multi-services application module.[1]

Can the platform run more than one Ethernet test at the same time?

The platform can perform two independent Ethernet tests in parallel with a dual-port chassis.[1]
