T-46
Telephone
Tap
Detector The TT-46 is the only test set that lets you quickly and
easily check both single and two line phone systems for series and parallel
taps. This advanced unit tests every possible combination of wires in a four
wire cable. This lets you detect some of the more sophisticated taps that use
split pairs.
While not much can be done about down-line taps, the TT-46 will help you
check your phone lines for on-premises series and parallel bugs and wiretaps.
You can also check your telephone for the most common types of hookswitch
bypasses. (A hookswitch bypass is a modification to the telephone instrument
that causes the transmitter or receiver in the telephone handset to pick up room
sounds and pass them down the phone line even with the phone hung up. This
effectively turns the telephone into a room monitor.)
The TT-46 detects series devices with a resistance of 10 ohms or more. (Most
series taps have a resistance of over 100 ohms.) It also detects parallel
devices with a resistance of 65 megohms or less. (Most parallel taps are under
30 megohms.) It can also detect certain capacitively coupled taps.
Also included in the TT-46 is a line monitor that lets you check the wire
pairs for the presence of room audio when the phones are hung up. (The presence
of room audio on the phone line when the telephones are not being used is a sure
sign of bugging.) A line driver is part of the monitor function. The line driver
is used to turn on (activate) any voltage operated microphones, such as FET
mics, that may be connected to a pair of wires.
The unit weighs 9 oz. and measures 7" x 4.6" x 2.25" (with the cover closed).
It is powered by one 9 volt alkaline battery (included). Also included are all
necessary cords, plugs and adapters along with an illustrated instruction
manual.
Please note that neither the TT-46 or TT-07 are "magic boxes" that are
connected permanently to a working phone line. They are both test sets that let
you check your on-premises wiring and telephones for eavesdropping devices or
taps. In order to do this, you must be able to disconnect your inside wiring
from the telephone line coming into your home or business.
This is done at the interface between the telephone line and inside wiring;
usually just by unplugging a cable at the interface box mounted on the side of
the building. There is nothing difficult about this, but, of course, you must
have access to this interface box.
