Harris Corporation Launches Fault Location Tester for the Datacom
and Electrical Contractor Environment CAMARILLO, Calif., Dec. 2
/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Harris Corporation , a leading supplier
of telecommunications test sets and tools, is now shipping its
TS(R)90 Cable Fault Finder, engineered specifically for datacom and
electrical contractors needing a reasonably priced, easy-to-use
fault location test set. "The TS90 fault locator was developed
directly from our highly successful TS100 model," said Paul
Alexander, product line manager - Harris Network Support Division
(NSD). "The TS100 model was created with long distance reading
functions and a broad range of linecord options suited for the
telecom technician's environment. We re-engineered it for the
datacom and electrical contractors' environment and produced the
TS90 model at a more affordable contractor price." Like the TS100,
the TS90 tester is three tools - in one: a fault locator, cable and
wire manager and tone generator. From just one end, the user can
quickly locate the distance to "opens" or "shorts", up to 2,500
feet, on any two or more conductor cables including electrical
wire, telephone wire, security wire and coax. Results appear as a
distance reading rather than a waveform, so it's simple to operate
by technicians unfamiliar with Time Domain Reflectometery (TDR).
Intermittent faults are easier to find because the unit constantly
measures while "On". Contractors can efficiently manage cable
inventories in trucks and warehouses and generate more accurate
bids for jobs by quickly assessing needs and the cable stock with
greater accuracy. The patented SmartTone(TM) technology provides
five distinct tones for exact wire and pair identification. Voltage
detection in the unit will immediately sound an alarm if
accidentally clipped onto an energized pair, up to 250VAC. Harris
NSD, one of five divisions within Harris Corporation, delivers
advanced management, test, and maintenance solutions for
multivendor, multiprotocol networks of public and private
communications service providers that solve the increasingly
complex needs of operations, maintenance, and installation
professionals in telecommunications, broadcast, and defense markets
worldwide. Harris Corporation, which also provides government,
tactical radio, broadcast, and microwave products and systems,
provides sales and services to customers in more than 150
countries. For more information, visit http://www.harris.com/.
