BW-1 Connector

Here we see a standard Telephone Line Interface showing 3 sets of wires that are providing dial tone to various parts of a home or business. For purposes of photographic clarity, we are showing this interface with only one active phone line. Normally, the alarm installer would be removing these sets of wires from the terminals, and doing the typical rewire using chicklets, crimps, etc. and providing the system with line seizure through the newly made connection. .

Here we see the BW-1 Connector installed. As you can see, the BW-1 male connector is inserted into the female jack of the interface. The dial tone is now diverted through the BW-1 into your alarm panel. and the returning dial tone from the alarm panel is reconnected to the interface through the female side of the BW-1. Simply insert the male jumper wire from the interface into the female port on the BW-1 and you have completed you connection with the following advantages:

1. You saved time
2. You have provided a permanent line seizure connection, no matter what changes or additions occur to the wires on the screw terminals after your alarm connection is made.
3. You have provided the Telephone Company and the Home or Business owner a quick and simple way to completely remove the alarm system from the phone line in seconds. This is very convenient to both you, and your customer should the need arise for testing or servicing of the line.

Here you can see that there is plenty of room to tuck in the BW Connector and have plenty of clearance to close and secure the Interface enclosure. We have done extensive field testing and done actual installations of the BW-1 and BW-2 Connectors in Interface enclosures that have up to 6 phone lines installed with lots of additional wiring.

Now that your phone line connection has been made, close the box, and you're done!
