MANAGEMENT INCENTIVE PLAN DOCUMENTFiscal Year 2005

Plan Name and Effective Date

The name of
this Plan is the ADC Telecommunications, Inc. Management Incentive Plan.  The plan is
effective from November 1, 2004 through October 31, 2005.

Purpose

The
purpose of the Plan is to provide, with full regard to the protection of
shareholders investments, a direct financial incentive for eligible
managers and individual contributors to make a significant contribution to
ADCs established goals.

Eligibility

Eligibility
for Fiscal Year 2005 is limited to full or part-time regular employees in the
U.S. and in such other countries where ADC has specifically notified employees
of eligibility for participation in the Plan. Eligibility for participation in
this Plan is limited to such employees who hold executive, certain management
and higher-level individual contributor positions. Temporary employees and
independent contractors are not eligible for participation in this plan. In
order to be eligible, an employee cannot participate in any other ADC incentive
plan, except as approved by the Compensation and Organization Committee of the
Board of Directors or the CEO, and must be employed in an eligible position on
or before October 1, 2005.

Timing of Payment

Payments
that become due under this Plan are made as soon as administratively feasible
following the close of ADCs fiscal year, generally in late December or
early January. All payments are subject to appropriate withholdings.

Plan Goals

The
Plan reinforces the key goals that support ADCs long-term strategic plans.
The key factors in ADCs FY 05 corporate and regional success are net sales
and pro forma operating income. For global business units, the key factors for
FY05 are net sales and global contribution margin. These goals will be set at
the ADC, regional, and global business unit levels. Accounting methodology
changes may dictate corresponding goal modifications during the plan year.

Following
is a description of the plan components:

---

|Plan Goal                         | Definition
|--------------------------------- | ----------
|Net Sales                         |           
|                                  |           
|Pro Forma Operating Income        |           
|                                  |           
|Business Unit Contribution Margin |

Goal Weightings

Employees
serving multiple business units and multiple regions have 100% of their
incentive plan based on ADC goals and results. Employees dedicated to only one
business unit have a portion of their incentive based on ADC results and a
portion on global business unit results. Employees serving only one region have
a portion of their incentive based on ADC results and a portion on regional
results. Each participant will be notified of their applicable business unit or
region, if any. The weightings for business unit or regional participation are
as follows:

|Grade        |  | ADC Weighting |  | BU or Regional Weighting
|------------ |  | ------------- |  | ------------------------
|Grade 19+    |  |               |  |                         
|Grades 15-18 |  |               |  |                         

Individual Performance

Exceptional
individual performance can be recognized in the MIP program. An ADC-wide award
pool is available to supplement the financial-based awards for outstanding
performers.

ADC Performance Gate

To
ensure protection of shareholder interest, an established level of ADC pro forma
operating income must be achieved before an incentive payment can be generated.

Calculation of Payment

Prior
to making any payment under this Plan, the Board of Directors must determine
that the claimed business performance levels have been achieved. The Board of
Directors has complete authority and discretion to determine whether performance
levels have been achieved, including without limitation the authority and
discretion to properly calculate pro forma operating income. The size of an
incentive award will be based on three factors:

|1. |  | Target Incentive Opportunity Determined on the basis of the ADC
salary grade associated with an individuals job and country of work. It is
expressed as a percentage of an individuals FY 2005 eligible base salary
earnings.
|-- |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|2. |  | FY2005 Eligible Base Salary This is the amount paid to the
participant during the fiscal year in Base Salary.
|-- |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|3. |  | Business   Performance in comparison with the established goals.
|-- |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------

While
each goal has a threshold of 0% of target incentive opportunity, the minimum
individual payment is a total payment of 10% of an employees target. If
incentives earned total less than 10% of target, no payout will be made. The
maximum award attributable to each performance factor is 200% of its target. The
maximum total individual award is 200% of the target payout. This maximum
includes any MIP award also provided for exceptional individual performance.
Specific financial goals have been established for 0%, 100%, and 200% of target.
Results between these specific points are interpolated for each goal.

Here
is an example of a hypothetical award calculation.

Assume
a Regional Plan participant with the following facts, in a scenario where the
ADC performance gate has been met:

|                                 |                                                                 
|-------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------
|
|Target Opportunity:              | 15% of base salary earnings                                     
|FY05 Eligible Base Salary:       | 70,000 EUR

Effect of Change in Employment Status

Termination
of Employment. If employment with ADC is terminated for any reason other
than death and if the Employment Termination Date occurs prior to the end of the
Fiscal Year, a participant will not receive an award under the Plan. For
purposes of this Plan, the Employment Termination Date is the date
that the participant ceases to be an employee of ADC (as determined by the
company). In the case of termination of employment by ADC, the Employment
Termination Date shall be determined without regard to whether such termination
is with or without cause or with or without reasonable notice.

Transfer,
Promotion or Demotion to another position with a different ADC incentive plan,
target incentive opportunity or business goals. A participant, who
transfers, is promoted or demoted to another position with a different plan,
target incentive opportunity or business goals will receive a prorated
calculation of payment based upon the number of months served in each position.
The participant must be in the new position by the first of the month in order
to receive credit for that month under the new plan, target or goals. For
example, a participant transferring from Wireless to Connectivity on June 10
would receive eight months payment under the Wireless plan (November 1 
June 30) and four months under Connectivity (July 1  October 31). In order
to receive payment under MIP, a participant must have completed one full month
of service under the plan during that plan year.

Death.
If a participant dies during the fiscal year, a pro-rated payment will be made
to the participants estate after the end of the fiscal year. The payment
will be based upon the time the participant served in the eligible position
during the fiscal year.

Administration

A
Management Incentive Plan Committee (Committee), appointed and
authorized by the Compensation Committee of the Companys Board of
Directors, will administer this Plan. Subject to the complete and full
discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, the
Committee is authorized to make all decisions as required in administration of
the Plan and to exercise its discretion to define, interpret, construe, apply,
approve, administer, withdraw and make any exceptions to the terms of the Plan.
