Wiring field card (WFC)

The wiring field card (WFC) simplifies the connections of lines and extensions to the main unit. The WFC installs into the cable management tray of the wallmount bracket and connects to the RJ-21 telephony connector through a 50-pin header.

The WFC contains 12 eight-pin modular jacks for digital stations, 4 eight-pin modular jacks for analog trunks, and 4 eight-pin modular jacks for analog stations. The eight-pin modular jacks accept RJ-45 or RJ-11 modular plugs.

There is also a terminal block for connecting auxiliary equipment and a 50-pin header to connect to the BCM50 (see Figure 16).
