I was up in the attic and found a spool with probably 200ft of cat5 cable on it... Quote:

I think a newer "all digital" PBX might be easier to comprehend as mine had hard-wired signal paths (digitally controlled analog) that imposed constraints on what could and couldn't be done -- so (without schematics), a lot of effort went into understanding why THIS worked but not THAT... Many alarm systems are equally cryptic. Stupid when you consider how easy it is to add a serial port (or, BT interface!). Quote:

![]() What a crappy, cold, rainy & drab fall day.....so I wasted it snaking the shittiest cable of all through the wall from my office to the wire closet.....
The crappy part over, and phone working. Those awesome 3 monitors, just to make someone get all excited.... Wall jack.....install clean or don't install at all. Now for the workroom. This jack originally was 2x RJ45 connectors with cat5e to each. I 'borrowed' one of the cat5e lines and pulled the RJ45 jack and replaced it with an RJ11 (the wall plate works with either)....and of course pulled the other end in the wiring closet from the LAN switch and patched it into the telco switchboard. I wired this back in 2010 when I finished out this room. At some point, I may run an additional/dedicated telco wire, but for now this was the easy way. There's already 4 LAN connections in this room, plus the wifi.....one of the LAN drops could be spared. ![]() ...and done with this for today! So far so good! |

![]() Some research revealed that there's a Panasonic cordless phoine compatible with this system...I found a used one for 22 bucks.....Ni Cad battery won't hold a charge....but that's fixable.

![]() Just a FWIW, this has been in operation since the creation of the thread.....but I did finally get motivated to clean up the rats nest of wires and tidy everything up.
Shelves.... That TVS-50 voice system is basically a voicemail system....that I never could seem to get programmed right....so I said fruck it, I'll use the one built into the cellular line. ...but atleast the UPS isn't sitting on top of a junk PC case because the wires weren't long enough! ![]() Brains for the cordless extension. PBX all tidied up. Even inside this building, that box always has 3 of 4 bars. Never had an issue with it. I didn't show the before pics....out of embarrassment.... ![]() It was never all that bad inside the cabinet....it's just packed a little tighter with telephone connections in it now. ...and that's that! |

![]() the Nortel stuff I have to play with once in a while is older and bigger. I still do have a Nortel NT5B01 and phones kicking around here. In those there are no coin cell batteries. They have Panasonic 1.5F supercaps in there.
The new Avaya stuff is best programmed via software / laptop and so far haven't had much problems with it, besides programming bugs. The old Nortel gear mostly breaks because there is something wrong with the power supply. Easy fixes. |
