2. Product Description
The CPAT FLEX is a modular monitoring platform that detects, records and dispatches signal
leakage and ingress events in coaxial networks. The system is installed in a service vehicle
and operates automatically. The CPAT platform provides web access to third party web-
enabled devices or through cellular communication to upload data to a centralized CPAT
web server site.
ARD4:
The ARD4 (Autonomous Recording Device) is the control module for the platform. It is
installed in a ser-vice vehicle and is powered from the vehicle’s electrical system. The ARD4
begins monitoring as soon as it is powered up and uploads data in real time back to the CPAT
Web, or stores the data in memory. The ARD4 can be equipped with WiFi, CDMA, GPRS and
HSDPA communication modules. The ARD4 accepts other CPAT FLEX add-on modules for
increased monitoring capability.
ITX2: (optional)
The ITX2 (Ingress transmitter module) is a portable radio transmitter that continuously
transmits a low-power test carrier signal in the cable upstream band (5-42 Mhz) to detect
ingress faults. It can be used as a portable nd and-x tool, or can be plugged into the
ARD4 CPAT FLEX module to automatically locate ingress impairments while driving in the
operator’s territory as part of the technician’s daily work routine.
DRV4: (optional)
The DRV4 is an optional module that can connect to the ARD4. The DRV1 is a dual-band
leakage detection receiver that works with the ARD4 to automatically detect, measure and
position leakage events. It operates from 118 to 140 MHz (Mid band tuner) and from 572 to
860 MHz (LTE band tuner).
DRV3 Lite: (optional)
The DRV3Lite is an optional module, is a portable signal leakage detection meter designed to
operate in all-digital cable networks. It functions as a mid-band portable nd-and-x meter
and as a monitoring probe when part of the CPAT FLEX system. It is frequency agile from
118 to 140 MHz.
DRV3: (optional)
The DRV3 is an optional module, is a portable signal leakage detection meter designed to
operate in all-digital cable networks. It functions as a portable dual-band nd-and-x meter
and as a monitoring probe when part of the CPAT FLEX system. It is frequency agile from
118 to 140 MHz (Mid band tuner) and from 572 to 960 MHz (LTE band tuner). The DRV3 can
easily be set up via its intuitive user interface.
