ADC's ComProtect
® 
 2/1 CP TP280A1 GDT 
(Gas Discharge Tube) single-pair protection 
module, when combined with ADC's LSA-
PLUS
®
 Series 2 connectivity, is a high-density 
system that increases the pair capacity that 
can be supported in OSP cabinets. The 
ComProtect GDT system provides up to a 
50% space savings over traditional systems 
utilizing separate cross-connect and protection 
fields. By reducing the number of connection 
points, the ComProtect GDT system improves 
technician productivity and reduces failure 
rates. The ComProtect GDT module has been 
designed for protecting high bandwidth 
circuits, like VDSL2.  
Applications 
OSP protected blocks, designed 
for protecting circuits entering 
or leaving cabinets
T1 protected input and output circuits
Building entrance protection terminal blocks
