For anyone installing paging speakers/systems as a page port/station set as paging speaker.

Everyone says to get a 600 Ohm resistor and throw it across the tip and ring which is correct but there is an easier fix that I found hilariously..

If you work with the CM, Definity, Prologix; they usually come with or have those Music on Hold boxes (built in 600 ohm resistor). Use that and plug the source into the regulated port and the other end into the station port of the IPO and it will work better than trying to splice the cable.

Trust me, this works so well and its great for the Bogens and Valcoms.

This makes cabling and dressing up cables so much easier and nicer. No more beads and inline splices sticking out! Again just use a Music on Hold box that comes with the other Avaya systems.

It would be helpfull if you have a Avaya part number of the box so we can order them when needed.

Is this the PAM10 boxes? We used to use them for this a few years ago too, they do work well indeed, didn't think you still got them

That's the fella I'm talking about

This one, Model number is: KS23395L4

I don't know the price. I don't purchase equipment, just program and set it up so sorry if the price is high. But I use these for all paging installs, and it works great. No splicing, no resistors to buy, just this box. Saves time and hassle IMO.

They look very similar, the Pam10 has a variable switch inside to alter the volume output

this one looks good enough for me
