The term "Non Limited Slip Differential" is Ford's way of telling you that your differential isn't special.

A limited slip differential has clutches in it that stop a spinning wheel (the one that isn't getting traction) and send the power to the one that has traction, so the vehicle can get out of snow or mud. A non limited slip differential can only send power to one wheel at a time, which is the one with the least amount of rolling resistance (the one not getting traction).

What is a open differential?

"Open" differential is non~limited slip or non positraction. They are less expensive and if you get one wheel stuck only the free one will spin. There are no advantages that I am aware of to have one. On the contrary, it's easier to get stuck.
