Description 

FAST TEST 
 

Fast connectivity and TDR test (no Remote unit needed): 

- determines cable 

length 

or 

termination

 

- finds 

cause

 and 

location of most frequently

 cable and 

connectivity 

faults

 

 

COMPLETE TEST 
 

Complete connectivity and TDR test (with Remote unit): 

- determines cable 

length 

 

- finds 

cause 

and

 location of all possible

 cable and connectivity 

faults 

- cable 

identification

 

LENGTH& 
REFLECTIONS 

Complete TDR cable check, calibration facilities 
- finds 

cable length

 and 

termination

 

- location and amplitude of 

cable 

reflections. 

calibration facilities

 (on base of known NVP or cable length) 

for accurate length measurements   

CABLE TYPE
