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.

For Optical Interfaces:
Use the VIAVI P5000i or FiberChek Probe
1.
microscope to inspect both sides of every
connection being used (SFP, attenuators,
patch cables, bulkheads). Clean and repeat
until it passes.
Insert desired Optical Transceiver into the
2.
Port 1 SFP or QSFP slot on the top of the
T-BERD.
If necessary, insert optical attenuators into the
3.
SFP TX and/or RX ports.
Connect the SFP to the port under test using
4.
a jumper cable compatible with the line under
test.
►
For Copper 10/100/1000BASE-T interfaces:
Connect the 10/100/1000 RJ-45 jack to
the port under test using CAT 5E or better cable.
