Tektronix 1503B

Metallic Cable Tester
The Tektronix 1503B is a used Metallic Cable Tester that uses time domain reflectometry (TDR), also known as cable radar, to precisely pinpoint faults or changes in impedance in almost any dual-conductor metallic cable.

Generates a 1/2 sine pulse, with selectable pulse widths of 2, 10, 100, or 1000 nS.

High-resolution 2 nS pulse permits faults as close as 1 foot to be located.

Features include direct distance readout- accuracy to better than 1%,

intermittent fault monitor mode, high-resolution LCD display with zoom, menu-driven setup, help mode, rugged portability, and calibrated vertical scale.

Self tests and internal calibration routines ensure reliability.
