T-BERD/MTS 5800 Portable Network Tester. Ethernet RFC 2544 Layer 2 Traffic
The T‑BERD/MTS‑5800 supports RFC 2544 Layer 2 testing to validate Metro Ethernet service performance during activation. With the required software and Ethernet options from 1G to 100G, the tester generates and analyzes traffic to measure key metrics such as throughput, latency, frame loss, and back‑to‑back frames. Using compatible optical transceivers, cables, and proper fiber inspection, technicians configure and run standardized RFC 2544 tests to verify service quality and ensure that Ethernet circuits meet performance commitments. This workflow enables efficient turn‑up and troubleshooting of Ethernet services.
