The Fault Mapper Pro is a hand-held graphical TDR (Time Domain Reflectometer) designed for identifying and locating faults on power and communication cables, given access to one end only. The Fault Mapper Pro measures cable length and indicates the length and distance to cable faults to a range of 9 ft (3 m) to 19,000 ft (6000m) on virtually any type of cable. It injects a series of pulses into the cable under test. The velocity at which the pulses travel is determined by the type of cable, which is known as the velocity of propagation (Vp) of the cable. The Velocity of Propagation (Vp) is adjustable between 1% and 99% enabling accurate calibration to the cable under test.
Features:
11 range scales indicating cable faults and terminations up to 19,000 ft (6000m) in feet or meters
Detects opens, shorts, taps, faulty taps, bridge taps, splitters, high resistance, wet cables, splices and more
Identifies impedance mismatches
Works with twisted pair, parallel and coaxial cable
