Distribution Intercept

The heart of the NCX-1000s is ADC’s patented Distribution Intercept (DI) cross-connect using LSA-PLUS®
Series 2 IDC connectivity.

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.
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
seal. Silver-plated contacts resist corrosion much more effectively than standard tin-plated contacts.
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.
