A cable joint is easy to see before backfill. The next crew needs to find it after the trench has closed. Choose 1401-XR to mark a buried splice, joint or duct entry during construction or maintenance. Tapex code 016112 identifies the orange telephone variant. The antenna levels itself inside the ball as the outer shell settles. A compatible locator can then pick up the buried marker, giving the crew a useful place to start.

Features

  • The antenna finds its level

    A passive marker gives the crew a way back to a buried splice, joint or duct entry.

  • Orange above. Identified below.

    Colour and frequency distinguish the telephone marker.

The antenna finds its level

Backfill can shift the outer shell. The antenna levels itself inside the ball, maintaining the orientation used to locate the marked point.

Buried. Ready to respond.

An EMS-compatible locator sends a signal to the marker and detects its response. The marker needs no battery or external power connection, so there is no buried battery to replace.

Orange above. Identified below.

The orange shell makes the utility type visible at installation. Its utility-specific frequency lets the crew select the matching marker setting when they return.
