T-BERD/MTS 5800 Portable Network Tester
T-BERD/MTS-5800 Portable Network Tester
QUICK CARD
Ethernet RFC 6349 TrueSpeed Test - Remote Unit
RFC-6349 specifies a methodology for measuring end-to-end TCP throughput between
a local (near-end) TCP Client and a remote (far-end) TCP Server. This Quick Card
describes how configure the T-BERD 5800 as the remote TCP Server.
•T-BERD/MTS 5800 equipped with the following:
oBERT software release V30.1.0 or greater
oC510M1GE test option for 10 Megabit to 1 Gigabit
Ethernet
oC510GELAN test option for 10 Gigabit Ethernet
oC5100GE test option for 100 Gigabit Ethernet
oC5LSLAYER4 test option for 1 GigabitTruespeed
oC510GLAYER4 test option for 10 Gigabit Truespeed
oC5100GLAYER4 test option for 100 Gigabit Truespeed
•Optical Transceiver supporting the line rate to be tested
•Cables to match the optical transceiver and the line under test
•Fiber optic inspection microscope (P5000i or FiberChek Probe)
•Fiber optic cleaning supplies Figure 1: Equipment Requirements
CONNECT TO LINE UNDER TEST
►For Optical Interfaces:
1. Use the VIAVI P5000i or FiberChek Probe
microscope to inspect both sides of every
connection being used (SFP, attenuators,
patch cables, bulkheads). Clean and repeat
until it passes.
2. Insert desired Optical Transceiver into the
Port 1 SFP or QSFP slot on the top of the
T-BERD.
3. If necessary, insert optical attenuators into the
SFP TX and/or RX ports.
4. Connect the SFP to the port under test using
a jumper cable compatible with the line under
test.
►For Copper 10/100/1000BASE-T interfaces:
Connect the 10/100/1000RJ-45 jack to
the port under test using CAT 5E or better cable.

1. Press the Power button to turn on the
test set.
2. Using the Select Test menu, Quick Launch
menu, or Job Manager, launch an Ethernet,
RFC 6349 TrueSpeed, Terminate test on
Port 1 for the desired physical interface.

1. Select “I am installing or turning-up a new
circuit” and tap the button to
advance to the Symmetry screen.
2. Select My downstream and upstream
throughputs are the same option and tap
the button to advance to the
Connect to Remote Instrument screen.
3. Use the Local Settings configuration
section to fill in this T-BERD’s IP address,
Subnet Mask and Default Gateway. If
VLAN tagging is used, set the
Encapsulation option to VLAN and provide
the appropriate VLAN ID. Leave the Remote
Settings section set to defaults.

5. Tap the button, ensure that the
Restore Setups on Exit option is not
checked and tap the button again.
5. Check the Sync Acquired and Link Active
LEDs to ensure the unit is connected to the
network under test. The remote (far-end) T-
BERD unit is now ready for RFC 6349
TrueSpeed test to be executed from a local
(near-end)T-BERD unit.
