JDSU today introduced an innovative set of new features for its widely adopted T-BERD/MTS-8000 fiber optic test instrument. The additions include an in-band optical spectrum analyzer (OSA) that tests Agile Optical Network (AON) performance with a high degree of accuracy; an enhancement for testing Optical Transport Network (OTN) interfaces, enabling users to turn-up and troubleshoot OTN circuits in the field; and a module for testing Ethernet transported over SONET or SDH (EoS), also known as new or next-generation SONET/SDH ("NewGen"Â) services. The new features will be showcased at CeBIT 2007 in Hannover, Germany, March 15-21 (hall 13, booth B20) and OFC/NFOEC 2007 in Anaheim, California, March 27-29 (hall C, booth 2425).
In use by every major telecommunications operator worldwide, the JDSU T-BERD/MTS-8000 helps communications service providers and equipment manufacturers meet the fundamental challenges inherent in bringing new network technologies to market, beginning in labs - where verifying network element reliability, interoperability and quality of service (QoS) are paramount - and in the field where the need to reduce installation times, decrease mean-time-to-repair (MTTR) costs, enable efficient maintenance and reduce the overall technology learning curve are a priority.
"The on-demand broadband experience is driving the need for network operators to provide services that are reliable and uninterrupted despite the constantly-changing network environment,"Â said Dave Holly, senior vice president of JDSU's Field Service Communications Test and Measurement division. "JDSU's T-BERD/MTS-8000, as the industry's most innovative fiber field test platform, is addressing this need by providing the market with optical test solutions that enable the effective delivery of broadband services"Â - JDSU.
