The growth of triple-play services has changed the landscape of the telecommunications industry through the creation of new opportunities, while also introducing significant challenges for service providers. To remain competitive, providers must efficiently deploy bundled voice, video, and data to the exacting demands of customers—delivering on both quality of service (QoS) and experience (QoE), while reducing operating expenses. The T-BERD/MTS-4000 meets these challenges and more as the first multiapplication platform with fully integrated copper and fiber functionality that addresses the complete set of requirements for triple-play, such as turn-up, troubleshooting, and maintenance. The T-BERD/MTS-4000 Triple-Play Services Software gives field service technicians who install and maintain triple-play service over leading-edge fiber- and copper-based digital subscriber line (DSL) Access networks a complete suite of essential testing tools in one unit. Flexible connectivity, including universal serial bus (USB), high-speed 10/100/Gigabit Ethernet (GigE), Wireless Fidelity (WiFi), and Bluetooth, interfaces make downloading software and offloading captured test data easier, thus increasing productivity and baseline network performance. T-BERD/MTS-4000 TRIPLE-PLAY SERVICES SOFTWARE OPTION 2 Architecture The T-BERD/MTS-4000 is designed for skilled field technicians who install and maintain various next-generation fiber (FTTx) networks delivering triple-play services that often require advanced troubleshooting, including in-depth physical layer tests on copper or fiber—or increasingly both. Layered Graphical User Interface The figure below shows the JDSU Quality Layer Model integrated into the T-BERD/MTS-4000 graphical user interface (GUI) to enhance root-cause analysis. Technicians can use it to locate IP service problems more easily and quickly.

The wide range of testing technologies offered by the T-BERD/MTS-4000 provide all of the testing functions that technicians need at every stage of the network lifecycle, from the physical layer to the application layer, in a single handheld and rugged unit. The T-BERD/MTS-4000 delivers an integrated approach to field testing with test support for specific application use cases. Field-swappable modules are available for multi-service testing and two modules can run simultaneously. IP Video Testing The T-BERD/MTS-4000 enables analysis of the video service (IPTV) stream anywhere in the Access network using a DSL or Ethernet interface. With its advanced performance monitoring features, the T-BERD/MTS-4000 accurately measures video QoS and QoE using built-in tests for content, transport, transaction, and physical link quality.

They can also conduct IP ping, packet statistic, and trace route analysis to identify, diagnose, and sectionalize VoIP network and equipment problems. Figure 6: VoIP test interface IP Data Testing The T-BERD/MTS-4000 enables Internet connectivity testing using an integrated Web browser and also performs required IP data tests (such as IP ping delay) to verify bandwidth requirements for real-time applications and services (such as online gaming and streaming video). Figure 7: IP Ping test interface CoS Testing With its advanced test capabilities that address each triple-play application QoS metric, the T-BERD/MTS-4000 let carriers focus on effective Class of Service (CoS) testing to ensure priority mapping for IP services. All three applications can be run at the same time simulating mixed traffic flows. Interactions that violate CoS rules can be identified quickly. T-BERD/MTS-4000 TRIPLE-PLAY SERVICES SOFTWARE OPTION 6 The Right Tool for Today’s Triple-Play Tests The lightweight, rugged, and battery-operated T-BERD/MTS-4000 cost-effectively scales to provide an all-in-one solution for field installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting across a wide range of test applications for copper, fiber, and triple-play services.
