VIAVI Solutions has launched the T-BERD/MTS 5882 solution, packing critical features to enable fibre characterisation, multi-protocol service activation, troubleshooting and maintenance of next-generation mobile and cable networks into the industry’s smallest form factor for this category of instrument.
In order to simplify the testing of complex technologies for service providers and their contractors, the T-BERD/MTS 5882 portable solution covers a broad range of tests in an automated workflow. This lightweight, versatile tool significantly reduces the time in the field for technicians of all skill levels across hybrid workforces.
The move to 5G, Remote PHY and other distributed technologies means that even more stringent synchronisation targets must be met to prevent service degradation. VIAVI is collaborating with Tier 1 service providers and the T-BERD/MTS 5882 solution addresses their critical requirements. This instrument is optimised for fibre characterisation, multiprotocol service activation, troubleshooting, and maintenance across the mobile, cable and power utility networks.
The key features of this solution are that it is the smallest instrument in its category; supports emerging and legacy network protocols such as Ethernet; and has an inbuilt GNSS receiver, extended battery life, and a job manager application that consolidates and automates testing and reporting, resulting in industry-leading job accuracy and timely completion.
