Although it is not so difficult to identify a damaged cable and calculate the accurate distance with a test instrument, it does not help the user to pinpoint the exact position where you should dig a hole on the ground. FibreOptica¡¯s FOX-500CPL, a Cable Path Locator can help you out.

The FOX-500CPL utilizes the principle of electromagnetism which is a well-tested and the most popular method in underground utility survey. It is embedded with advanced DSL techniques quickly and efficiently measuring and pinpointing faults and accurately tracing the path and depth of underground cables such as Telco cables, optical fiber cables (with metallic support/trace wires), CATV cables, power cables, gas pipes and etc. 

FOX-500CPL has also adopted a unique filtering technique to significantly reduce the interference caused by unexpected sources. This makes FOX-500CPL work perfectly under most environmental conditions.
