What You Should Know About TDR Machines
Time-domain reflectometry is considered among one established and widely used measuring method for determining * Total length of cable * location of cable interruptions * location of joints along the cable * location of low resistive cable faults Considering the above four points, installing TDR test equipment is sometimes compared to a radar installation. However, there is a significant difference. The difference is of the medium involved, as it is the transmission line rather than air or free space. Therefore, when there is a discontinuity or the transmission line carries an open fault, the TDR successfully displays the reflected waveform. The user quickly identifies the nature of the fault. Certain Advanced Features Of TDRs Modern TDRs are well equipped with advanced and innovative features, including dual trace and step function, not available in traditional testers. The advantage of the dual trace is that a lineman can send two pulses on separate testing channels to run
