Distribution Intercept
The heart of the NCX-1000 is ADC’s patented Distribution Intercept (DI) cross-connect using LSA-PLUS

Once the DI is spliced onto either feeder or distribution outside plant cable, broadband service activation
occurs with a simple 2 pair jumper between brown and white blocks and insertion of a green activation
plug.ExistingvoiceserviceisimmediatelyavailableuponsplicingtheDIontooutsideplantcabledueto
normally closed contacts on Series 2 white blocks.
Alternatively, the NCX-1000 supports a feeder distribution interconnect (FDI) option with separate Series
2 blocks for feeder and distribution circuits. In this 1:2 configuration, broadband service activation
requires two jumpers: one from the feeder block to the DSLAM input block and another from the
DSLAM output block to the distribution block.
The high performance LSA-PLUS Series 2 IDC blocks are far superior to standard 66- and 110-type
IDCblocks.Contactsangledat45degreesofferalarger,strongercrosssectionofwireandagastight

Combined with integral clamping ribs for extraordinary grip, LSA-PLUS blocks offer exceptional electrical
performance and contribute to reduced failure frequency rates in the network.
