T-BERD /MTS-5800 Network Tester
CPRI Check, RRU Testing with ALU BBU Emulation and
RF over CPRI Spectrum Analysis
This quick card describes how to connect to a ALU CPRI Remote Radio Unit (RRU) and configure a T-
BERD 5800v2 for CPRI Testing including BBU Emulation and RF over CPRI Spectrum Analysis.

Equipment Requirements:

• RRU with power
• T-BERD/MTS-5800v2 equipped with:
o BERT software release V27.1 or greater
o CPRI test options:
▪
C512GCPRI for CPRI Rate 2 (1228.8M)
▪
C524GCPRI for CPRI Rate 3 (2457.6M)
▪
C549GCPRI for CPRI Rate 5 (4915.2M)
▪
C598GCPRI for CPRI Rate 7 (9830.4M)
▪
C5RFOCPRI for RF over CPRI Spectrum
Analysis
▪
C5RRHA for ALU BBU Emulation
• SFP or SFP+ optical transceiver that supports
the CPRI rate for the interface under test
• Single mode jumper cable to connect the
T-BERD/MTS to the interface under test
• Fiber optic inspection microscope
(VIAVI P5000i or FiberChek Probe)
• Fiber optic cleaning supplies

Information Requirements:

• CPRI Line Rate
• RRH Bandwidth (MHz)
• Carrier Transmit Frequency (MHz)
•
Carrier Receive Frequency (MHz)

Fiber Inspection Guidelines:

• Use the VIAVI P5000i or FiberChek Probe
microscope to inspect both sides of every fiber
optic connection being (bulkhead connectors,
patch cords, etc.)
• Focus the fiber on the screen. If dirty, clean
the connector.
• If it appears clean, run inspection test.
• If it fails, clean the fiber and re-run inspection test.
•
Repeat until it passes.
