Leica 850287 | 10m Transmitter Cable Extension | Enhanced Signal Range

The Leica 850287 Transmitter Cable Extension is a critical accessory for utility detection professionals requiring additional range. Spanning 10 metres in length, this cable is engineered to enhance the functionality of Leica signal transmitters by providing broader coverage areas without the need to relocate primary equipment. It is specifically built to maintain signal integrity over its extended distance, ensuring that utility tracing remains reliable and accurate even in challenging field conditions.

How does this extension cable improve field operations?

By adding 10 metres of additional reach, this cable allows operators to work further from the signal transmitter, facilitating the location of utilities in restricted or broad access areas. This flexibility significantly increases the coverage area for tracers like the Leica DA220 1 Watt Signal Transmitter.

Why is signal integrity important for this extension?

Maintaining a strong, clear signal is vital for accurate depth and position readings; this cable is constructed to prevent signal attenuation over its 10-metre length. This ensures that the electromagnetic signal remains consistent, providing high-performance utility detection across various ground conditions.

Which equipment is compatible with the 10m extension?

The Leica 850287 is designed for use within the Leica utility detection ecosystem, integrating seamlessly with transmitters and connection accessories. It is typically used in conjunction with standard leads to reach distant connection points or to navigate complex site layouts.
