At the remote site they have a Bogen Paging system, and an analog line card in expansion chassis. I have connected the bogen from it's telephone screws to the 3 Com analog port on the card in the expansion chassis. Issue is the port stays offline, as it senses no load to become idle. With it offline, no paging happens (duh). Anyone ever connected a Bogen to a 3Com analog card port? TIA

If its an analog station port then Viking makes a device that will work. Merritt Business Telephones & Equipment + Commercial Audio/Video Products Commercial Communications . . . Turner, Maine If it was built after 1980 don't expect it to work right.

You are probably connecting your analog phone port to a transformer coupled input that is supposed to connect to a page port, not a phone port. John C (Not Garand) When I was young, I was Liberal.

There is a new unit available but I don't have the part number. go to www.bogen.com and you should be able to find the answer to that.

MARK3906's link suggestion is your best bet. They've also got a phone # help line, but you probably won't get any help either way 'til Monday. John C. (Not Garand) When I was young, I was Liberal.
