Integrated rack

INTEGRATED DSL AND POTS SPLITTER combines terminal blocks and DSL splitter--reducing cost, install time and space requirements. The TSX-100 is a three-rack unit providing termination and splitter capabilities for 100 circuits in one chassis. The TSX-100 has built-in, front-administered terminal block fields to provide easy access and to reduce space requirements. Standard POTS telephone lines remain active even under maintenance situations, allowing uninterrupted service. No additional rack space is required for termination or cross-connect fields. The integration of the terminal blocks into the splitter chassis provides a large concentration of circuits per rack unit, and allows termination and testing of the various components of DSL service in one unit. Mounting brackets are designed for both 19" and 23" equipment--one bracket for two applications. Additional mounting bracket locations are built in for flexibility.-Telect
