My company has a key service unit, model CK III, made by TIE Communications. We're moving into a new building and we want to run both the phone and RS232 lines through the same 25-pair cable into offices. My question is if anyone out there has a similar setup and has successfully or unsuccessfully done this? A *technical* person from TIE said that he has heard of some place that had trouble when some *computer cables where run in parallel with the phones*, but he didn't know anything more specific. He said I should do some tests myself. Thanks in advance, Jeff --------- Jeff Kitson jeff@kestrel.arpa

We did that in our offices, but found that the data lines induced noise into the voice lines, so you would hear a funny ZZZiiippp noise each time the screen of a terminal was rewritten. We eventually changed phone systems anyway, and expanded our terminal wiring so much that we had to run separate cables, so it is no longer a problem. -- Gerry Wheeler Phone: (519)884-2251 Mortice Kern Systems Inc.
