Spec Sheet
ADC's ComProtect® 2/1 CP TP280A1 GDT
(Gas Discharge Tube) single-pair protection
module, when combined with ADC's LSA-
PLUS®Series 2 connectivity, is a high-density
system that increases the pair capacity that
can be supported in OSP cabinets. The
ComProtect GDT system provides up to a
50% space savings over traditional systems
utilizing separate cross-connect and protection
fields. By reducing the number of connection
points, the ComProtect GDT system improves
technician productivity and reduces failure
rates. The ComProtect GDT module has been
designed for protecting high bandwidth
circuits, like VDSL2.
