Connecting the Loudspeaker Paging System

Perform the steps in this section if you have a loudspeaker paging system.
Loudspeaker paging systems allow you to broadcast a message over a large area. The PARTNER
system supports all Avaya paging systems, including the entire PagePac line. The PARTNER
system also supports most paging systems from other manufacturers when the paging systems
are connected using a paging interface device.
The PARTNER system supports a maximum of one paging device. You can connect secondary
units by treating them as lines. However, certain features interactions will not be blocked (for
example, bridging).
Follow these steps to connect a loudspeaker paging system to the PARTNER system:
If you connect a loudspeaker paging system from another manufacturer, a paging
interface may be required.
1. Insert the modular plug from the loudspeaker paging system into an available line jack on any
PARTNER module. A loudspeaker paging system can be connected to a line jack on the
following PARTNER modules:
PARTNER ACS R7.0 processor module
308EC module
400E module, 400EC module.
200E module
206 module, 206E module, 206EC module
It is recommended that you connect the loudspeaker paging system to the last line
jack in your PARTNER system to help prevent any future conflict with your line
assignments. When you administer a loudspeaker paging system to a line jack on the
PARTNER system, that line is "removed" from the system. For example, suppose
your system has four lines, and you connect your loudspeaker paging system to line
jack 4. (The lines are connected to Line jack 1, Line jack 2, Line jack 3, and Line jack
5.) When you administer the lines, the PARTNER system will label these four lines as
Line 1, Line 2, Line 3, and Line 5. Line 4 is removed.
If the loudspeaker paging system requires a "dry contact relay," you must connect the
loudspeaker paging system to line jack 5 on the PARTNER ACS R7.0 processor.
2. Route the RJ-11 cord through the processor module's wire manager. If the loudspeaker paging
system requires a dry contact relay, you must use a four-wire RJ-11 cord. If the loudspeaker
paging system does not require a dry contact relay, you may use a two-wire cord.
3. Connect the other end of the cord to the paging system.
