Item Description
6 Reserved Not used.
9 RJ45 connector
(input)
Use a standard shielded or unshielded Cat-5 cable to connect the call
station to the All‑in‑One Unit or to the previous call station, connected
in cascade.
10 RJ45 connector
(loop-through)
Use a standard shielded or unshielded Cat-5 cable to connect the call
station to the next call station, connected in cascade. The RJ45
connectors (9) and (10) are in parallel and their functions can be
interchanged.
The last Call Station in the chain must have a terminator plug in the free
RJ45 socket for best performance with long cables. A small terminator
plug that looks like an ordinary RJ45 connector is delivered with each
Call Station. See Delivered with products, page 11.
When Call Stations are cascaded some terminators are left unused, as
only the last Call Station is terminated.
