Wanted: Digitac 66 Block or Part Number of Same
I am looking for the connectorized 66 block commonly used as part of a Digitac installation.
It has a 25 pair connector on both sides although the one on the right is not usually used. I wound up with one that has a female connector but the one for the Digitac has a male connector on it.
The wires from the connector are wire wrapped to pins on the back, not punched to the front.
The wire dividers on the right side have pin numbers printed on them that correspond with the pin numbers found in the manual for hooking up the various inputs and outputs.
Thanks
Birken

So you need a standard connectorized 66-block. Nothing DIGITAC specific there. eBay should have this.

The one that came from Motorola had pin numbers preprinted on the right side and this is pretty important because they do not go in order top to bottom, they jump around a lot. I'd spend the money to save my time trying to keep track and getting it wrong....

They do. They are the pin numbers of the connectors on the back of the Digitac.The Pager Geek wrote:Did they go like this:

I could spend hours with a label maker and scissors and a microscope putting them on. I am trying to find one already done so I can buy it and move on with my life. I would not even consider trying to count them out by hand because inevitably things would end up one pin misaligned and spend more hours trying to fix that.

Never thought of using a Centracom block.
Do we know if the spark gap board will come off and leave a standard 50 pin connector to hook the cable to?
It would stick out and get in the way in this case.
