Quick Connection Technique
The Quick Connection Technique is a highly reliable and cost effective wire connection system for
modern telecommunications and data networks. It is a comprehensive system built around the widely
accepted ‘KRONE’ termination module with its range of built-in features. This is complemented with
an extensive selection of accessories for protection, circuit identification and testing. The LSA-PLUS

system uses a unique Insulation Displacement Contact (IDC) technique which eliminates the need
to wire-strip, solder or make screw terminations, and dramatically increases productivity. This system
is supplied for connections in various fields like telecom and structured cabling.

The ADC LSA-PLUS
®
contact functions in the same basic manner regardless of the type of module
in which it is placed. Using the LSA-PLUS
®
insertion tool (5), the plastic insulated copper wire or
jumper (4) is inserted into the contact slot (2). The contact slot contains contact tags (3) set at a
45-degree angle to the wire. Through the action of the tool, the contact tags twist in an axial movement
and at the same time cut through the wire insulation and push the insulation material to both sides
of the contact. Through material displacement and the subsequent torsional and restoring forces (6,7)
of the contact tags, two permanent gas-tight surface areas are formed. This connection prevents any
movement in the contact area that would undo the connection. For additional protection of the contact
area, plastic clamping ribs (1) are provided above and below the connection area. These clamping ribs
firmly grip the wire insulation, preventing any movement of the wire in the contact area. In the same
termination process, the LSA-PLUS

If the wire needs to be re-terminated, the LSA-PLUS

KRONE insertion tool has a swing-out hook, which
is used to remove the wire from the contact.
