Description
The RLS Series blocks consist of compact, IDC (insulation displacement connection) wire
connectors, which provide fast, easy connection of 22 to 26 gauge ( .4 to .6 mm) wire.
Each connector is silicone-grease filled with tin-plated terminals, providing maximum
environmental protection for terminated pairs.
The RLS Series includes blocks for 2 to 50-pairs. Pair-at-a-time wire termination is accomplished by lifting the RLS activator, inserting a pair of unstripped wires into the appropriate
slots on the activator, and pressing firmly down on the activator.
The 2 and 5-pair blocks are internally wired, with RLS input and output. The 10, 25, and
50-pair blocks are potted on the rear side of the block, and are available in a variety of harness lengths, with or without connectors.
Application
The RLS family of blocks is a flexible terminal block that can be employed in a wide variety
of cross-connect or building entrance applications. These blocks are ideal for outdoor use.
• Available installed in cross-connect
and building entrance terminals to
fit a variety of applications
• Designed to meet Telcordia 1195
specifications to ensure reliable
performance
• Certified to EIA/TIA 568-A
