FEATURES

The Klein Tools Ranger™ TDR is a portable time domain reflectometer

(TDR) and voice-data-video cable tester. It measures cable length,

calibrates Nominal Velocity of Propagation (NVP) values, finds faults in

cables, and provides built-in tone generation for cable tracing.

•

± (1% + 3 ft. / 1 m) length accuracy.

•

Stores up to two NVP values.

Displays length reading in feet or meters.

•

Extra large seven-segment, back-lit LCD screen.

•

Tests most types of copper cable including data, voice, video, lamp

wire, siamese, and NM cables.

Discovers NVP values for cables with known length.

•

Automatic pre-test voltage checks.
