The BERT function in the Viavi T-BERD MTS 5800 is used to test network performance by measuring the Bit Error Rate (BER). It ensures compliance with G.709 standards by generating test patterns and analyzing received data for errors. The function can be activated by turning on the BERT icon, which loads the necessary software modules. Additionally, errors and alarms can be inserted into the traffic flow to simulate fault conditions and verify network resilience.
