Atec Tektronix-TS90 User Manual
Telscout, Ts90 tdr cable tester for telephone applications
If your job is to find faults on
telephone twisted pair cable,
the Tektronix TelScout™
TS90 is built for you.
Designed specifically for
telephone local loop applica-
tions, the TS90 applies the
newest technology to provide
both ease of use and tele-
phony performance that can-
not be found in any other
TDR.
The TS90 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 TS90
does the rest. Impedance, Vp,
gain, pulse width, and vertical
position are automatically se-
lected and adjusted as you
scan the cable. Just move the
cursor to the fault to pinpoint
its location.
On the performance side, the
TS90 employs optimized
pulsing and sampling, cou-
pled with advanced filtering
and signal processing tech-
niques, to insure the maxi-
mum measurement range.
That way, you’ll always have
a clean waveform for easier
fault interpretation.
Short Pulse Width
The TS90 provides a 5 ns
pulse width for close-in reso-
lution. Faults as near as 3 ft.
from the pedestal can be lo-
cated with ease.
Rugged Package
Best of all, you get all this
performance in a rugged
handheld TDR package.
Come snow, rain, heat, and
humidity, the TS90 keeps
working, because you have to.
