Entryphone Upgrade Question
I need a new entryphone. I've just taken the old handset off the wall and it
had a 6 wire cable running to it from the street door. At the front door I need 3 buttons for 3 different flats. I don't need video, or the need to be able to remotely open the street door - just a nice new 3 button panel for the street, and one new (super loud) handset for my flat. Any suggestions? Do all entryphones use the same 6 wires? I'd like to avoid recabling if poss. Or can you just use a normal BT phone connected to the wires? Thanks, Fred. |

Entryphone Upgrade Question
Is it an 'Entryphone' or some other make?
If it is Entryphone then just ring them up and get a new panel. The older systems use 4 common wires L,P,B,3 and A is the call wire. newer systems can be run on a twisted pair cable. There are sh1t loads of makes, Fermax, Aiphone, BCT, Terraneo, Eagle, Challenger, Defender etc etc and there is little or no inter-compatability.

news:ad24cc732a7788281b0412266aaaf1aa.115311@mygat e.mailgate.org... Is it an 'Entryphone' or some other make? On closer inspection, it's 'Techniphone' (it's 12+ years old). Anyone know what they might be inter-operable with? Thanks, Fred. |
