KX-RJ5162 Installation

OVERVIEW

The KX-RJ5162 is a Translation Cable designed specifically for use with the Panasonic KX-NS700 PBX in the United States and with KX-NS500 & KX-NS300 PBXs in other world markets.

Translation Cables are used whenever Digital Telephones, Analog Single Line Telephones, Loop Start Central Office Trunks or Door Phones are being deployed on these systems.

Refer to the complete list of Translation Cables in Table 1.

EZCORDS transform the non-standard and/or high-density pin-out used on the NS Series PBX into separate RJ45 jacks with Industry Standard EZ pin-outs. Once the jacks are Industry Standard, they may be plugged into a patch panel for delivery to wall outlets throughout the building.

The KX-RJ5162 Translation Cable has 2 plugs and 2 jacks. One plug is inserted into the jack on the face of a Panasonic DPH2 Door Controller Card labeled “Door Phone.” The other plug on the KX-RJ5162 is inserted into the jack on the face of a Panasonic DPH2 Door Controller Card labeled “Door Opener.”

At the jack end of the Translation Cable, there are 2 short, staggered whips as illustrated in Figure 1. The shortest whip is Door #1 and the longer whip is Door #2, as illustrated below. Certain Panasonic documentation also refers to these circuits as A & B but it is all the same.

INSTALLATION

Unlike any of the other EZCORDS, the KX-RJ5162 still requires custom wiring but it is now much easier to understand and maintain.

  • The Talk Leads are on pins 4 & 5.
  • The Opener Leads are on pins 1 & 2.
  • The Sensor Leads are on pins 7 & 8.
  • Nothing is on pins 3 & 6.

 

EZCORDS are passive devices, meaning that they have no electronics that could go bad.
