North Electric (Galion, Ohio)

(CX evolved from the "Automanual" system designed by Edward Clements "Clement eXchange" or "Community eXchange")

The McBerty design used an early "wire spring" relay and welded piano wire interconnections rather than complex wire multiples. The system never achieved the reputation of the CX product due to problems with poor contact pressure in the interconnection relays. Despite its much lower cost of production and installation, the level of maintenance required to keep these systems on good order doomed this variation of the CX design.

This later was renamed the ITT 1210 product upon purchase of North electric by ITT.

L.M. Ericsson purchased North Electric in the early 1950s and brought this Swedish design to North where it was reworked to conform to U.S. telecommunications requirements.

The NX-1E was not a SPC switch, rather it was a conventional path controlled switching matrix with electronic processors (computers) replacing the control, route selection and translation (directory number to line ID) functions.
