The Wikipedia has the following information about this codepoint:
The Rivia (רְבִיעַ, [rəviʕa]) is a cantillation mark commonly found in the Torah, Haftarah, and other biblical texts. The Aram word רְבִיעַי) has its Hebrew counter part רְבִיעִי Rivi'i, with other variant English spellings. Its meaning is 'the fourth'.
Rivia is considered to have medium strength. It is stronger than a Pashta or Tevir, but weaker than a Zakef or Tipcha.
The Rivia can occur either by itself, or following one or two Munachs. When there are two Munachs prior to a Rivia, the first Munach has a long melody, and the second one is short. When there is one Munach, it is short.
Based on its translation with fourth in printouts it is represented by a diamond-shaped mark. However in manuscripts it's just a dot.
