The phone ports are presented as RJ45 sockets. These were chosen to be compatible with
structured wiring systems, which also use RJ45 plugs/sockets.
Using standard structured cabling the RJ45 socket on the front of the ArgentPhone unit
can be extended to the required telephone extension location. Standard Industrial
Converters can then be used to provide BT New Plan sockets (431A/631A) if required.
Refer to Telephone Converter Cables, on page 20.
The ArgentPhone 8 has a single bank of 8 x RJ45 sockets, the ArgentPhone 16 has two
banks of 8 x RJ45 sockets and the ArgentPhone 30 has three banks of 8 x RJ45 sockets
and one bank of 6 x RJ45 sockets. The phone ports are not labelled. This allows the user
to pursue his own labelling scheme e.g. each port can be labelled with the users extension
number.
Each phone port supports the 'Caller Display' feature specified in B.T. SIN242 Issue 2.
The phone port pin-out can be found in Port Pinouts, on page 16.
Telephone Converter cable pin-out information can be found in Telephone Converter
