3.3.3  Isolated audio and key line connections

Two 5-way connectors provide a duplicated interface for 

isolated audio and control lines for connection to other 

third party equipment operating alongside the RJ45 

connections. These interfaces can be used to replace 

the RJ45 connections provided they are connected to 

an IO Tu unit’s audio input, usually when installed in a 

separate cabinet with PABx equipment.

3.3.4  Power connections

The Sonix Pbx is powered via a 2-core 48 V dc input 

on the rear of the unit. This input should be connected 

to the managed 48 V dc power output from the Sonix 

PM10 power management unit. 

Note: As these cables are power feeds they should 

be routed within the PA/GA system in a way so as to 

avoid contact with signal or audio cables and other high 

voltage cables.

3.3.5  General fault output connections

The general fault output is a low voltage, volt free 

contact output. The output can be set in configuration 

to either normally open or normally closed. It is 

recommended that the output is set to normally closed 

so a loss of power to the unit will be detected.
