HICOM 150

[Didake]

Hi.

I should take care of replacing a Siemens Hicom 150 with another PBX.
Does anyone have a diagram of how the connection to the phones is? I find it has special connectors on the back ...
Analog and digital phones are in this same connector?
Thanks in advance

The switch hooks to standard Amphenol "tails" which land on a punch down block. One tail for each board. The analog phones use one pair/port on an SLA board, and the digital optiset phones use one pair/port on an SLO card. Polarity matters on optiset phones, and if you are using any bay module that requires a power supply, such as an optiset Analog adapter, then you need to be aware that the cable that goes between the pwer supply and phone MUST be the correct cable (they usually have green ends). I upgraded my 150 to a 4K and never looked back - it was important for me with the number of analog devices I have that it be easy to keep all that clean.
