Spec Sheet
Today’s ever-changing network deployments frequently require wires to be reterminated, relocated
or rewired. That rewiring can quickly degrade the quality of wire terminations. ADC has developed
products like the LSA-PLUS®NT block to maintain superior connectivity through hundreds of
reterminations and deliver the best electrical performance in the industry. The LSA-PLUS NT block is
a high–density solution that utilizes the silver plated, world renowned LSA-PLUS contact principle.
Its gas-tight contacts ensure a reliable and long lasting connection.
System side contacts and the cross connections on the LSA-PLUS NT block are situated
perpendicular to one another, increasing pair density while decreasing the chance of accidental
tampering of system side terminations. Both test access and cross–connect contacts are accessible
from the front, and the block can be easily released to access system side contacts for new wiring
or rewiring.
The LSA-PLUS NT block’s unique perpendicular configuration of the system and cross-connect sides
creates additional space. Its vertical mounting pitch of 17.5 mm results in a vertical space savings
of 21% over LSA-PLUS Series 2 solutions.

LSA-PLUS®NT Termination Block
(IDC Orientation)
Features & Benefits
• Utilizes proven reliability of the LSA-PLUS®
45º silver plated contacts
• Unique perpendicular configuration facilitates
quick and reliable installations
• Vertical mounting pitch of 17.5 mm results in
21% space savings over Series 2 blocks
• System side contacts situated at a right angle
on the bottom of the block protect cable
wiring and prevent accidental tampering
during cross–connect work
• Clear labeling system eliminates wiring
mistakes
• Built in “look-both-ways” test port
• Designed for use with ADC back mount
frame; other versions are available for use
with ADC profile rod mount brackets
• Various identification and marking
possibilities: marking caps used to mark
individual pairs, identify special lines or
protect a given line from being mistakenly
switched
• Switchover adapters allow interrupt-
free switchover to a new system, active
equipment or connection of new cables
• One-pair “look-both-ways” test cord with
banana plugs allows for independent testing
of incoming and outgoing signals; no need
for wire removal
• LSA PLUS insertion tool manages all wire
terminations; no need for additional tools
• Wall and rack mountable
• Can be mounted on 19- or 23-inch frames
Applications
• Well suited for applications requiring a
bandwidth greater than POTS
• Offers superior high-speed connections for
voice and data in backbone cabling
• Ideal for next generation broadband
networks that need to support voice, video
and data transmission (IPTV, ADSL2+, VDSL2,
etc)
