The FLEX-3000 and FLEX-1500 use a modular 8-
pin
modular
connector
or "jack" for interfacing a microphone to the
transceiver
. This connector is a modular "8P8C" (8 position/8 contacts) connector. A corresponding 8P8C
plug
is needed, commonly referred to as a RJ-45 plug or connector, for connecting a microphone to the FLEX-3000/1500.
This plug is commonly used for twisted pair Ethernet cabling applications.
The RJ-45 plug has the eight (8) contacts or pins numbered 1 through 8 as shown in the diagram to the right. The contacts are numbered sequentially starting from 1. When viewed head-on with the retention mechanism (clip) on the top, jacks will have contact number 1 on the
right
and plugs will have contact 1 on the
left
.
Below is the contact assignments or "pinouts" for the FLEX-3000/1500 microphone.
