starcom intercom cables/connectors.adaptors
Had the intercom a while it's the later digital jobby. wont go into the pros and cons of it.
But am finding the life span and quality of various cables/connecters
somewhat lacking mainly the connecter and cable supplied to connect my
nokia phone have had to replace them a few times since i've had the unit
in paticular the short 3.5 mm jack plug to the 2.5 mm jack socket not
great quality and flamin expensive for what they are.
i tracked down the genuine NOKIA adapter AD-53 much better quality much
better design but sadly although i can hear people who ring me, i can
hear the music on the phone but the caller cannot hear me am i doing
something wrong? have starcom designed their own cables/connecters so
reasonably priced stuff cannot be obtained? i found another not nokia
3.5 MM JACK PLUG TO 2.5 MM JACK SOCKET but from a company called
KENNABLES again far better quality than the one that comes from starcom
far cheaper but again the caller cannot hear me talk but i can hear the
caller clearly. Any thoughts on this would be much appreciated as i use
the intercom mainly for the phone in my work. Many Thanks Gareth
Have you looked for a "forum" on these intercoms ?
You may well find the answers you are looking for have been posted already by some geek/guru
I think it's worth a shot
quite a mystery, posted on a few forums including pan euro club, and nothing hey ho dont wanna buy more rubbish from the manufacturer so guess i'll have to try another make
That's a damn shame oldbiker
Maybe get a few back on ebay for the duff one
But the expense of a new system is not a happy prospect
I hope you something to suit your needs
At a price you can afford
Best of luck mate
Sounds like you have an audio converter so can hear what is being said because the headphone connection is there but no microphone connection. Check the number of separate bands on the actual bit that plugs in against the starcom one, if they are different then therein lies the problem.
i am fairly certain although i have no idea how or why but i think the issue is at the phone end as it works with the cheap n nasty adaptor from starcom but does not work with what i THINK! is a genuine nokia adaptor
AD-53 and another adaptor i got from a company called KENABLES
ok after more testing n trying n such dug out an old nokia with the same 3.5 mm jack for headphones and problem gone away i dont know how or why because if i use the adaptor that comes with starcom both phones are fine if i use either of the other adaptor i have that did not come with starcom the original phone dont work but the old nokia i dug out works fine with all 3 adaptors arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
ooppss software update seems to have lost all 3 connectors on the 5800 now FFS ARGHHHHHHHHH but connected via bluetooth it all works but sounds very tinny compared to being connected via cable.
NEW PHONE TIME??? ;-/
