Network Alarm Panel
Having Digital Phone installed, 4 lines, alarm, credit card machine. Need Wiring Info?
Finally dropping the Telco and moving data and voice services to Time Warner…
We have an old 4 Line AT&T Partner phone system (4 lines), an alarm and a credit card machine.
Line 1, 2 and 3 will go direct to the AT&T System. Line 4 with need to connect to the alarm, followed by the credit card machine and finally connect to the phone system.
What would be the best way to wire that so it makes sense to others and looks clean, proper, professional.
I can run network cable all day long, but get uncomfortable when I’m not just punching to a patch panel and rj45 jack.
I’ll be using a patch panel for our extensions. If it makes sense, I could use a patch panel for the 4 incoming lines as well.
The problem will be you alarm system it will require an RJ31x type connection. Don’t be scared what that means is the line has to run into the alarm pannell first into a rj31x jack then back out to the phone connection. As far as the credit card machine goes it just need to run a standard jack in front of the phone system but after the RJ31x
so if you running standard color codes you need to take the brown pair into the alarm to the RJ31x jack hook up to the red green then the output or return will be on the brown and slate wires brown will be tip slate will be ring return this to your punch down block take two leads from there one to the phone system one to the jack for the card reader
