Wireless: How much current is available on the 2-wire IC ports on the FSII baseII?
Question: Can I power up external Clear-Com 2-wire PL devices like wired beltpacks / remote speaker stations directly from the Freespeak II base II? If yes what is the current limitation of the base station?
Example : Approximately how many RS-701 beltpacks can I connect to a FSII base II
Answer: Yes the FSII base2 is capable of providing power from the 2-wire ports A / B & C / D. To activate this feature:

FreeSpeak II base II power :
Supply = 400 mA to Partyline shared between A/B
Supply = 400 mA to Partyline shared between C/D
