TTC T-BERD 310 Communications Analyzer with Options

The TTC T-BERD 310 Communications Analyzer is a modular test instrument for DS1/DS0, DS3, SONET, and ATM network analysis. It performs jitter measurement, pulse shape analysis to ANSI and ITU-T standards, payload identification, QoS verification, cell loss and delay variation measurements, and optical return loss testing. The instrument supports field upgrades via optional modules and operates across central offices, laboratories, manufacturing facilities, and field environments.
