Description


The TESCO MiTM Cable is a specialized EVSE testing cable that bridges between a Staubli interface and an EVSE charging interface (CCS1 or NACS). Designed for use with TESCO’s T4000 and T4350 EVSE Test Systems, the MiTM Cable enables direct man-in-the-middle (MitM) testing of both AC and DC charging systems, capturing real-time EVSE performance data under true operating conditions.

Key Features:

  • Real-Time Data Monitoring: Internal MCU enables direct communication with TESCO’s T4000/T4350 Test Systems.
  • Integrated Safety Sensors: Built-in thermistors continuously measure cable temperature for secure, reliable testing.
  • High Power Handling: Supports up to 1000V DC, 350A sustained (650A peak), and 19.2kW AC charging.
  • Durable & Field-Ready: Rugged 6.5 ft construction with Staubli protective terminal caps ensures long life and safe operation.
  • Seamless Compatibility: Plug-and-play with TESCO test systems, supporting CCS1 and NACS charging standards.
