Up for sale is a used Tektronix Tempo CableScout TV220 Coax CATV TDR Cable Tester.
It passes its power on self tests.
A power adapter and soft case are included.
Original Manufacturer Description:
Using TDRs in CATV applications is a 25-year-old story with a new chapter – the CableScout™ TV220. Formerly, TDRs have been viewed as complicated and expensive. The CableScout TV220 changes all that. It delivers greater performance, yet is so easy to use that little or no training is required. This leading edge TDR can test more system bandwidth, find faults that were previously invisible to TDR, and introduces one-button testing.
Because the TV220 tests at a higher bandwidth (it uses a 400 MHz acquisition system) than any other TDR, it tests more of your system capacity. This enables users to pinpoint the faults that can cause micro-reflections which can be damaging to digital transmissions. Only the TV220 has the bandwidth to enable you to find problems that may exist only at higher frequencies.
The TV220 also has extremely high signal-tonoise ratio (SNR). Tektronix proprietary circuit designs reduce the noise level so that “bumps” on the trace represent real faults, not just noise. Events that were previously difficult or impossible to find are clearly visible (because the noise is much lower) with the TV220. This means that you can clearly see faults fur
