Patient stations
78
• One external DB 37-pin bed connector receptacle (on patient
stations with BedConnect), or one rear (internal) bed interface
header (on standard patient stations)
• One 18-pin Smart Pillow Speaker connector receptacle
• Two 1/4-inch auxiliary input jacks, configurable for bed call cord
input or medical equipment input, or programmable for either
type of input

Electronic bed receptacles

For Telligence patient stations with 37-pin bed receptacles provide
for one or two communications connections (respectively) between
electronic beds supplied by Hill-Rom or Stryker and the Telligence
nurse call system.
Single bed receptacles
In the case of patient stations without 37-pin receptacles, Telligence
provides the HC-BID-SS37 Single Bed Receptacle to allow Hill-Rom
or Stryker electronic beds to connect to the patient stations.
Figure 30: Single bed receptacle
Patient stations without BedConnect have receptacles on the back
of the stations that are wired to these single bed receptacles, which
are separate 37-pin bed receptacles installed in the wall. When
electronic bed control panels are connected to the Telligence bed
receptacles, the panels are connected to patient stations.
The HC-BID-SS37 Single Bed Receptacle is typically installed on the
headwall, near the floor. In rooms with more than one bed, one bed
receptacle is located on the headwall by each bed. One electronic
bed can be connected to a Single patient station via one bed
receptacle; two electronic beds are connected to a Dual patient
station via two bed receptacles.
