CommLink TR6442i Fiber Optic Intercom Link Matrix and Station
Connectors
Both the RTS and Clear-Com system matrix systems use data wiring to carry intercom audio
and data. Clear-Com systems use an 8-wire "network" cable with RJ45 connectors. RTS
systems use a 6-wire cable with RJ11 connectors similar to standard telephone wiring.
However, telephone wiring will not work as it is only 4-wire.
The CommLink TR6442i Fiber Optic Intercom Link Configuration is shown for each intercom
mode. The switch position is indicated. In all cases, the 4W/2W switch is in the 4W position.
