JDSU Adds Industry-First Line-Rate 10GigE Capture/Decode Test Features to
Widely Adopted T-BERD(R)/MTS Platform

MILPITAS, Calif., June 16 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- JDSU today introduced new
features to its widely adopted T-BERD(R)/MTS-6000A platform, making it the
first portable test instrument to include line-rate 10 Gigabit Ethernet
(10GigE) capture and decode, dual-GigE port packet capture and decode, and
packet capture and decode of emulated application layer traffic (TCP, FTP, and
HTTP).

JDSU's new 10 GigE capture and decode capabilities reduce the complexity and
costs of managing Carrier Ethernet networks. From hundreds of potential
impairment events, these capabilities enable network architects, engineers and
technicians to quickly identify and resolve the source of service quality
issues across multiple network layers, from the premise to the metro network
core.

"With packet technologies, the common test approach is to first perform simple
packet testing because higher-layer application testing is significantly more
complex," said Jim Nerschook, vice president and general manager in JDSU's
Communications Test and Measurement business segment. "JDSU's new capture and
decode features for the T-BERD/MTS-6000A simplify previously complex tests and
troubleshooting processes, making it easier for technicians to understand and
share test results associated with these advanced applications. These
industry-first innovations are the latest demonstration of JDSU's commitment
to building customer confidence in the reliable, cost-effective deployment of
Carrier Ethernet networks."

The JDSU T-BERD/MTS-6000A is a compact and lightweight test platform designed
for all phases of fiber and transport network installation and maintenance.
Modular in design, the T-BERD/MTS-6000A offers an extensive portfolio of test
functionality for multiple network layers and the Multi-Services Application
module provides an integrated solution for Ethernet, SONET/SDH, and
higher-layer tests. Optical Modules allow thorough testing of short-haul,
long-haul, FTTx, CWDM, and high speed 40G networks.

JDSU offers a single-source Carrier Ethernet test portfolio that facilitates
analysis of all seven layers of Metro Ethernet services. The JDSU portfolio
provides the industry's deepest set of test features in an integrated,
end-to-end approach to testing Metro Ethernet products and services, including
lab and service verification, development and production, installation and
maintenance, troubleshooting and overall service assurance. The portfolio
offer NEMs and service providers worldwide the confidence to successfully
build, deploy, and manage Ethernet and Business Class solutions.
