Chapter 1: Descriptions
1.1 ELF Copper/Fiber System
Telect’s ELF System is a small “edge” connection system for use in locations where equipment density — maximum
density with simplied monitoring — is important. The ELF System is ideal for a 3G, 4G, LTE wireless network at
a base transceiver station (BTS), customer premises, controlled environment vault, co-location, or at any remote
network terminal.
All ELF Systems consists of a chassis, wall brackets, or wall enclosures with DSX-1, DNI, DSX-3,
Fiber, and/or Ethernet/Data modules:
• ELF Chassis t equipment cabinets, 19-in. or 23-in. EIA/WECO racks, or Telect’s Wall-Mount ELF Chassis
Bracket. Each 1RU (1RU = 1.75 in.) chassis handles up to three, rear- and/or front-access ELF modules.
DSX-1, DSX-3, ber, and other ELF modules can be mixed in the same chassis.
• Single-Module ELF Wall Brackets mount to the walls. Each bracket accommodates one total front-access
ELF module
• Single-Module ELF Wall enclosures include a lockable access door. The enclosure mounts to the wall and
accommodates one rear- and/or front-access ELF module. Ideal for a Fiber ELF module.
All chassis, brackets, and enclosures include shield ground pins for ITU G.703 compliance. ELF
modules are passive devices and do not require power. All chassis, enclosure, brackets, and
modules are mainly black.
