The Smarter Way to Locate and Recover Copper Cables
Rugged, Accurate, App-Connected
Our patent-pending copper cable recovery tool uses unique signal processing and magnetic field sensing to identify the right cable in seconds,no mid-span or mechanical access, no guesswork, no miscuts.
How the Copper Cable Recovery Tool Works
Generator Injects the Signal
Receiver Detects Trace
App Confirms
Map Created
Impact for Both Network and Field Teams
For Carriers
Cable Miscuts
The tools that an engineer has can be open to interpretation, leading to incorrect cables being cut.
Theft Prevention
This tool automatically captures meters measured vs meters recovered with GPS stamps. This data also allows a carrier to see a historical map of test locations for theft prevention.
Job Productivity
Do more with fewer engineers. The app’s confidence measurement enables engineers to locate a cable more quickly.
For Engineers
“Trace, Cut and Go”:
1. Speeds up the time to identify a cable, meaning shorter lane closures on a road/ footpath are required, or even eliminates the need for notice.
2. Road Crossings/ Access chambers for cable depth and change of direction can contribute to difficulties in cable recovery. With this device, it’s possible to quickly and easily identify cables at these troublesome locations separately.
Health and Safety
1. Lower manual handling risks for engineers as they can trace shorter cable spans and recover smaller lengths.
2. No requirement for engineers to climb into a chamber.
3. Submersible test head reduces the risk of installers being exposed to waterborne diseases, and reduces the need to pump out water.
4. Reduces the amount of time that an engineer spends in a chamber.

Wider Applications of the Technology
This device uses a proprietary signalling technology that is less susceptible to cable crosstalk. This opens up this tool to larger business cases, such as:
Congested Ducts
When a duct is full, or nearing capacity, it’s critical to free up duct space by removing copper. This device allows for informed decisions on what cables to cut and remove.
COAX Cable
Relevant for US-based carriers running large COAX networks.
Contractors
Relevant for theft tracing and prevention to identify when a contractor is not recovering cable truthfully. I.e. gain visibility of actual vs measured cable.
Structured Cabling
Very relevant for MDUs and Datacentres where large volumes of legacy copper may exist.
Congested Poles
Used on poles to trace wire for removal, freeing up cable space for fibre connections and testing on shorter cable spans. Massive Health and Safety benefits.
