CT-2

The Trilithic CT-2 Channel Tag is a headend-mounted device used with Trilithic's leakage receivers used to help identify leakage sources in overbuilt areas, to increase detection range and to increase immunity to interference. When several CATV systems operate in the same area, it is often difficult to determine which system is the source of a detected leak. The CT-2 solves this problem by "tagging" the system video carrier, with low-frequency modulation. This modulation is ignored by TV sets, but causes a distinctive response in Trilithic's? SEARCHER PLUS leakage receiver, SUPER PLUS leakage receiver, SEARCH LITE leakage receiver, and the TRICORDER signal level METERS when operated in leakage mode. Used as a system with the Super Plus leakage receiver, the CT-2 eliminates all "false alarm" triggers and increases leak detection sensitivity by four times over previous models.
