New this year is a Cable Theft Detection system that uses the revolutionary Spread Spectrum Time-Domain Reflectometry (SSTDR), made possible by LiveWire Innovation. This allows users to see into the cable environment and watch for changes without interfering with the wire circuit. It works on live and de-energized cables that will immediately transmit any alert or event wirelessly. Cable theft does not have to happen, and now, you can protect your cable investments.
