Hey,

Show you today a German phone system a Siemens Teamset 205, with 3 lines and 6 telephones (use here only one). The phones need 7 wires (2x analog signal, 2xdigital signal, 2x power, 1xground). The system comes first in the 80s, and has been superseded by the Siemens Hicom 100 and later HiPath. This a are one of the first digital systemtelephones, looks like a Merlin phone system.

Have a lot of pictures for you, and hope this like you :) A view behind a rarely German phone systems, from the 80s.

Thanks for the look at the Siemens Teamset 205 stystem Marco. Business phone systems always are of interest to me. I installed a few Siemens HiPath systems 10 or more years ago and I can see the evolution of the HiPath from the Teamset system.

How do the stations (telephone sets) connect to the building wiring? Was there a block for each telephone set that used similar connections to those inside the the main KSU (system cabinet)? I see you have the telephone set plugged directly on to the pins inside the KSU.

These days the need for 7 conductors to each phone seems strange but in the 80's we used an electronic key system that used 6 conductors. We called it "TIE UltraCom". It had an analog talk pair, a digital control pair and an analog intercom talk pair. Up until that time we used "RJ" type modular plugs and jacks but didn't use many of the 6 conductor versions of them.

I will move this discussion at some point to the "Switching" area likely under electronic Key Systems.

Great pictures!

My initial keyset "love" is for 1A2 phones/systems, but I've also liked the Merlin system - guess it's time to pick one up...  I believe Merlin is a "hybrid" - (digital control, but analog voice).
