July 21, 2014: Jewell Instruments, LLC (Manchester, NH) has announced today that it has acquired the assets of Byte Brothers Inc. (Newcastle, WA). Included in the purchase are several patents and trademarks for the Byte Brothers products and technology for an advanced line of test equipment for cable and devices. The Byte Brothers products will become part of Jewell’s Triplett Test Equipment and Tools division.
The acquisition will position both Triplett and Byte Brothers products groups to provide a more complete line of test equipment and tools. The continued development of the Byte Brothers cable testing technology will also allow for further expansion into new markets and territories.
Byte Brothers, based in Newcastle, WA, is a designer and manufacturer of innovative hand-held cable test and certification equipment for the computer, datacomm, audio/video and security marketplaces. Byte Brothers is known for having a creative approach to testing with tools that do more and cost less. Although Byte Brothers are best known as the maker of the low cost Low Voltage Pro (uniquely web upgradeable) and the Real World Certifier (tests the speed parameters of a cable plus stores 250 test reports), they have brought similar creativity to the Power Panel (for VoIP and IP camera installers); the ProTone Wire Locator with its illuminated tip; the TVR entry level LAN tester; the Camera Wizard CCTV tester with Vpp display; and other powerful, affordable testers.
Jewell Instruments is a world leader in the manufacture and distribution of Sensors & Controls, Meters & Avionics, and Triplett Test Equipment & Tools. Jewell’s Triplett Test Equipment and Tools product line brings over 100 years of experience providing the highest quality, most technologically advanced, rugged and reliable products in the marketplace.
