Accessories

The following accessories can be used with the BCM system:

Station auxiliary power supply (SAPS) — provides power for the OKIMs when the 7316E is connected to five or more KIMs. It can also be used to extend the loop length between a telephone or terminal and the BCM system from 1000 to 2600 feet. You must use a dedicated cable to connect the two locations.

Analog Terminal Adapter 2 (ATA2) — converts digital signals to analog signals to allow communication with analog devices, such as fax machines, modems, and answering machines. The ATA2 supports a maximum transmission rate of 28.8 kbit/s. With a single-line telephone, the ATA2 supports a long-loop configuration.
