Features / Key Benefits
• Range-plus – Two-button operation that allows the operator to quickly scan the cable under test while automatically stepping through a specific pulse width, vertical gain, and cable length.
• Sub-nanosecond Pulse Width – Pinpoint minor faults which interrupt digital services and cause signal loss, ingress, and egress.
• Intermittent Fault Detection (IFD) – Monitor and locate hardto-find intermittent faults using the IFD mode.
• Dual Independent Cursors – Measure between any two points on the waveform.
• SUPER-STORE Waveform Data Storage – Helps reduce downtime in a system. Simply connect the TDR, press “store”, and have the system back up and running within minutes. Analyze the waveform later.
• WAVE-VIEW Software – Upload waveforms to your computer. Document before accepting new plant, save money when comparing replacement versus repair cost.
• Rugged, waterproof packaging – Rugged, weatherproof casing helps keep the 1205CXA on the job, regardless of location or climate conditions.
• Easy-to-use – Logical, step-by-step testing for fault location and diagnosis is easy-to-use by all levels of expertise.
