pinout for paging port

[greg24]

Hi,



I have a NBX 5000 with 6.0.63. A group of users is having a hard time hearing a page over the phone so they want to plug into the paging port on NBX. The problem is I don't know the pinout for the paging port and it is not in the admin manual. The catch is this group is in another building. My plan is to use a pair (or more) of wires from the 25 pair of telephone cable we have running between buildings. They would plug their end into an amp which is connected to a bunch of speakers in the ceiling. Does this sound like a viable plan? If you don't think the telephone cable would work what type of cable would? The distance between buildings is about 400 feet.



Thanks,

here is the paging pinouts from the installation guide.

The paging connector on the NCP is an RJ-11 connector. It is a line-out, 600 ohm audio interface with a dry contact closure for use with an external paging amplifier (Table 28).
