The T-BERD/MTS-6000A/8000 Multi-Service Application Module (MSAM) continues to dominate the installation and troubleshooting market with its evolutionarily design with hardware that addresses the challenges of converged IP networks with ever-growing 10G Core and Edge networks. It also aids in installation and troubleshooting of storage area networks (SANs), including 8G Fibre Channel (FC) to enable data center redundancies, low-latency trading, and backup processing.
This flagship T-BERD/MTS platform continues to focus on the entire service life cycle, from installation to troubleshooting and maintenance. T-BERD/MTS-6000A/8000 MSAM is the leading multi-port 10G product designed for field and central office (CO) technicians that need to verify transport technologies from TDM/PDH up to 10G OTN, including 8G FC, and assure end-customer service level agreements (SLAs).
