This comparison evaluates the ABUS Kombisignalgeber-Attrappe O4003318489228 Dummy Combination Sounder against several alternative ABUS products, including the padlocks ABUS 54TI/40HB63 Titalium Padlock with Long Shackle and ABUS 60/50 C 6 Padlock, the cables ABUS TVAC40010 2 m coaxial cable with male BNC connectors in black and ABUS TVAC47030 Power Extension Cable 3m for DC Plug 3.5 x 1.35mm, and the wired opening detector ABUS FU7350W Wired Opening Detector White. All these items belong to the security and surveillance category, yet they serve entirely different practical roles. Their primary similarity is that they are manufactured by ABUS and support security setups. Their main practical difference is that the parent product is a visual decoy designed to deter intruders, whereas the alternatives are physical locking devices, surveillance cabling accessories, or wired perimeter sensors.
⚙️ The following table compares the relevant characteristics and differences between the parent product and the alternative ABUS options, highlighting their form factor, intended application, and functional role.
| Comparison parameter | ABUS Kombisignalgeber-Attrappe | ABUS 54TI/40HB63 Titalium | ABUS 60/50 C 6 Padlock | ABUS TVAC40010 | ABUS TVAC47030 | ABUS FU7350W | Practical conclusion |
|---|
| Device type | Dummy combination sounder | Titalium alloy padlock | Padlock for everyday use | Coaxial cable with BNC connectors | Power extension cable | Wired opening detector | The parent product acts as a visual deterrent, while the alternatives perform mechanical locking, signal transmission, or intrusion detection. |
| Application scope | Exterior mounting on buildings to deter intruders | Securing gates, sheds, and storage units | Locking access points and everyday items | Signal transmission in video surveillance systems | Extending power supply reach for electronics | Monitoring doors or windows in alarm systems | The parent product provides passive deterrence, whereas alternative products address physical security, connectivity, and perimeter monitoring tasks. |
| Design features | Realistic replica of an alarm signalling device | Lightweight aluminum alloy construction with a long shackle | Robust construction for basic security | 2-meter length with male BNC connectors | 3-meter length for DC plugs | 2-wire sensor technology | Each product is tailored to distinct engineering or security functions with no functional overlap. |
◎ The table below evaluates which user needs and usage scenarios are best addressed by each product.
| Use case | Recommended product | Why |
|---|
| Creating a visual security deterrent on building exteriors without active electronics | ABUS Kombisignalgeber-Attrappe O4003318489228 Dummy Combination Sounder | It is a realistic replica of an alarm sounder that discourages potential intruders through deterrence. |
| Locking gates or storage units in outdoor conditions with weight considerations | ABUS 54TI/40HB63 Titalium Padlock with Long Shackle | The high-tech special aluminum alloy provides corrosion resistance and reduced weight while maintaining security. |
| Everyday basic locking for sheds or access points | ABUS 60/50 C 6 Padlock | Its robust construction ensures reliable long-lasting performance for general security needs. |
| Connecting surveillance cameras and monitors | ABUS TVAC40010 2 m coaxial cable with male BNC connectors in black | Pre-assembled coaxial cabling ensures reliable signal transmission in monitoring networks. |
| Extending power reach for security cameras | ABUS TVAC47030 Power Extension Cable 3m for DC Plug 3.5 x 1.35mm | Allows flexible installation by extending the power supply range for compatible devices. |
| Adding perimeter monitoring for doors or windows | ABUS FU7350W Wired Opening Detector White | Provides precise monitoring of openings for integrated wired alarm installations. |
ABUS Kombisignalgeber-Attrappe O4003318489228 Dummy Combination Sounder differs fundamentally from all compared alternatives because it is a visual replica rather than a functional locking, cabling, or detection device. It is most suitable for property owners looking for a cost-effective way to deter potential intruders visually on building exteriors. Buyers should choose this product specifically for passive visual deterrence, whereas the alternative items should be chosen when physical locking, signal routing, or perimeter opening detection is required.
