If your job is to find faults on telephone twisted pair cable, the Tempo TelScout™ TS100 is built for you. Designed specifically for telephone local loop applications, the TS100 applies the newest technology to provide both ease of use and telephony performance that cannot be found in any other TDR.
The TS100 is designed for ease-of-use – you’ll spend less time operating the TDR, and more time repairing faults.
Simply select the cable type to be tested and the TS100 does the rest. Impedance, Vp, gain, pulse width, and
vertical position are automatically selected and adjusted as you scan the cable. Just move the cursor to the fault to
pinpoint its location.
On the performance side, the TS100 employs optimized pulsing and sampling, coupled with advanced filtering and
signal processing techniques, to insure the maximum measurement range. That way, you’ll always have a clean waveform for easier fault interpretation.
Short Pulse and Coax Option - The short pulse Option 01 provides a 5 ns pulse width for close-in resolution. Faults as near as 3 ft. from the pedestal can be located with ease.
Option 01 also includes a coaxial cable setup menu and an adaptor cable. This enables you to locate faults in coaxial
cables used in today’s emerging broadband systems. Best of all, you get all this performance in the industry’s most rugged TDR package. Come snow, rain, heat, and humidity, the TS100 keeps working, because you have to.
