Description
The NetReach™ XC Expander® Series
allows an existing pad-mounted crossconnect cabinet to expand from its
original size without disrupting service.
The existing grill is unbolted and the existing shell is removed without disrupting
the existing connections and jumpers. A
new Emerson cabinet is installed and the
old grill is bolted onto the new cabinet.
The cabinet is available with RLS50 terminal blocks equipped with 710, 3M
DPM or 4005 GBM splice modules.

Application
The Expander® Series increases the
termination capability for an existing
in-service Emerson Network Power or
other cross-connect cabinet, without
interrupting customer service.

EZ Series (2700-5400 Pair)
Manufactured of heavy gauge mill-galvanized steel, this quick and easy-to-install
cabinet is mounted on an existing pad or
standard footprint pad. The cabinet may
be accessed from either front or back to
expand termination capacity.
When stand-alone ADSL systems are
deployed in the outside plant network,
there is a need to efficiently overlay the
ADSL onto existing copper facilities. In
order to accomplish this in an effective
manner, cross-connect cabinets are used
to bring POTS into the ADSL remote
terminal and to distribute the POTS/ADSL
pairs into the distribution network. In
the event that the sufficient capacity is
not available at a given cross-connect
cabinet, the NetReach
Series can be utilized.
