7. CA-71A BIX Block or RJ-71C Punch Down Block Wiring Configuration
CA-71A (for Canada) and RJ-71C (for U.S.A.) Wiring Configurations of BIX or Punch Down Block can be found in
Appendices A-1 and A-2 respectively. Normally, the required blocks are installed by the telephone company. Each
block serves up to 12 telephone lines. The 50 pins Amphenol connector on the BIX block is connected to the 9512
relay card using the standard 9106 cable. Contact the telephone company at least three (3) weeks in advance
before the actual installation and order the required blocks. Complete the CA-71A or RJ-71C Block Identification
Form in Appendix B-1 or B-2 (as required) for the phone installer. The form instructs the phone installer how the
phone lines should be wired to the BIX/Punch Down Blocks. If possible, all BIX Blocks should be installed as close
as possible to the 9508 or 9516 Decoder/relay Cabinet(s).
The following information must be given to the Telephone Company:
1. Telephone numbers of the lines to which the 9500 system will be connected.
2. The Industry Canada (formerly D.O.C.) registration number 1156 6200 A for Canada.
3. The F.C.C. registration number 1M8CAN-21269-DT-E for U.S.A.
3. The ringer equivalence number (REN) of 9500 system is 0.0B.
Note: RJ-71C Wiring Configuration is not recognized by all telephone companies. For Bell Canada who has
jurisdiction for Ontario and Quebec, refer to CA-71A block for interconnect to the Telephone Entry systems.
Important notice:
Since there are two types of block wiring configuration, CA-71A and RJ-71C, we recommend the user contact the
Telephone Company as to what block wiring configuration is available. We suggest using Mircom's standard 9106
cable for CA-71A or RJ-71C configured blocks since they are straight forward and easy to use.
8. DOOR STRIKES
Select the appropriate door strike as required by your system applications. We recommend using Mircom's door
strikes below and its compatible power transformer. See appendix "C" for door strikes' specifications.
Model M-10 ± DC (silent) or AC (buzzing) Door Strike. Use PS-3B transformer.
Model M-10HD ± AC (buzzing) Heavy Duty Door Strike. Use PS-3B transformer.
Model M-20 ± DC (silent) or AC (buzzing) Heavy Duty Door Strike. Use PS-3B transformer.
Important notice:
The door strike must have its own separate power transformer. Do not tap or use the system power transformers.
When using a different door strike and door strike transformer, the maximum strike load that may be switched
through the control unit is 28 VAC or DC, 3.0 Amp. Maximum.
