In its work with the CEA List Institute in 2014, Nicomatic developed a device that could be integrated into its connectors and detect / localize various defaults of a complex wire network. This device, called Orthogonal Multi-tone Time Domain Reflectometry (OMTDR), puts together reflectometry & communication to allow to carry on preventive maintenance as well as breakdown detection in networks.{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FuRt9F0jg1M|title=YouTube|website=www.youtube.com}}[https://www.electronicsweekly.com/news/products/passives/surfacemount-probe-point-allows-hook-access-2019-06/ ]{{dead link|date=October 2019}}
