Cabling and Connectors
The Strata CIX uses industry standard cabling and connectors to interface with lines, stations, and
peripherals. Stations use standard twisted-pair cabling to connect to the system via the MDF.
Digital and standard telephones require just one pair-cabling. Two pairs may be required to
achieve full distance when optional DP subassemblies are used.
Digital telephones connected to BDKS require an external power supply to reach maximum
distance from KSU when the telephone has a DADM or DOCA-1A.
Station circuit cards connect to stations and peripherals with a 25-pair Amphenol connector via the
MDF. Analog CO, DID, and Tie line circuits interface with the public telephone network via
modular connectors. T1 and ISDN use industry-standard Amphenol and modular connectors (for
details, see
Table 38 on page 169).
Peripheral devices such as eManager maintenance PCs, etc., connect to a hub or LAN, which
connects to the processor’s Ethernet LAN interface via an RJ45 connector and Category 5 wiring.
Call Accounting and Voice Mail SMDI require RS-232 modular adapters and cords to connect to
the processor BSIS interface.
