E.g. 30 Video phones, with basic functions, and a maximum cable distance of 50 m required for each group of 10
phones;
2 common cables @ 1.0 mm, 5 common cables @ 0.5 mm and 10 individual call lines @ 0.5 mm.
Notes
A junction box MUST be placed within 2 metres of the power supply to split the common telephone wiring up into groups of 10
(video cables are already grouped by the VDC6 Video distributor).
Assumes only 1 video phone is active at a time and the phones are distributed evenly along the cable run.
Loop the coaxial cable from phone to phone (daisy-chain wiring). Do not run a separate cable from each video phone back to
a common junction (star wiring). Where possible (for optimum speech clarity), a twisted-pair should be used for ‘R’ and ‘O’
connections to the video phone.
