Easily test cables and determine cable length quickly and accurately with the FaultChaser Handheld. This simple device allows users to find cable length and determine impediments as well as the overall condition of cables up to 3,000 feet long. Using advanced spread spectrum TDR technology, The FaultChaser provides accuracy of 1% or better while remaining immune to voltage, current, or data stream disruptions.
- Accurately measures the length of live telephone lines within 1% or better and works on energized cables
- Capable of testing length and opening shorts present on the cable up to 3,000 ft
- Produces four different tones for locating cables
- Provides memory storage for most used cables and holds up to two different NVP values for multiple cable tests
- Users can easily view data on the large backlit LCD display
- Can calibrate NVP for any cable
- Kit contains F-connector coupler, F-connector to BNC, cable F to RJ45, cable BNC to alligator, and cable F to alligator
