starcom intercom cables/connectors.adaptors Had the intercom a while it's the later digital jobby. wont go into the pros and cons of it.
But am finding the life span and quality of various cables/connecters somewhat lacking mainly the connecter and cable supplied to connect my nokia phone have had to replace them a few times since i've had the unit in paticular the short 3.5 mm jack plug to the 2.5 mm jack socket not great quality and flamin expensive for what they are.
i tracked down the genuine NOKIA adapter AD-53 much better quality much better design but sadly although i can hear people who ring me, i can hear the music on the phone but the caller cannot hear me am i doing something wrong? have starcom designed their own cables/connecters so reasonably priced stuff cannot be obtained? i found another not nokia 3.5 MM JACK PLUG TO 2.5 MM JACK SOCKET but from a company called KENNABLES again far better quality than the one that comes from starcom far cheaper but again the caller cannot hear me talk but i can hear the caller clearly. Any thoughts on this would be much appreciated as i use the intercom mainly for the phone in my work.

  Have you looked for a "forum" on these intercoms ?   You may well find the answers you are looking for have been posted already by some geek/guru   I think it's worth a shot                                                                                                                                                                              

There's a bad conection prob on phone side of things do any friends have same phone try theirs or try maplin elec shops

it works with the connecter (albeit rubbish quality) that comes from starcom but with nothing else so i dont see how it can be the phone
                                                                                                                                                                             

quite a mystery, posted on a few forums including pan euro club, and nothing hey ho dont wanna buy more rubbish from the manufacturer so guess i'll have to try another make
                                                                                                                                                                             

  That's a damn shame oldbiker   Maybe get a few back on ebay for the duff one   But the expense of a new system is not a happy prospect   I hope you something to suit your needs   At a price you can afford   Best of luck mate                                                                                                                                                                               

Sounds like you have an audio converter so can hear what is being said because the headphone connection is there but no microphone connection. Check the number of separate bands on the actual bit that plugs in against the starcom one, if they are different then therein lies the problem.

i am fairly certain although i have no idea how or why but i think the issue is at the phone end as it works with the cheap n nasty adaptor from starcom but does not work with what i THINK! is a genuine nokia adaptor AD-53 and another adaptor i got from a company called KENABLES
                                                                                                                                                                             

ok after more testing n trying n such dug out an old nokia with the same 3.5 mm jack for headphones and problem gone away i dont know how or why because if i use the adaptor that comes with starcom both phones are fine if i use either of the other adaptor i have that did not come with starcom the original phone dont work but the old nokia i dug out works fine with all 3 adaptors arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

am wondering if it's some sort of software issue, so have updated software will go n try it in a bit fingers crossed lol                                                                                                                                                                             

ooppss software update seems to have lost all 3 connectors on the 5800 now FFS ARGHHHHHHHHH but connected via bluetooth it all works but sounds very tinny compared to being connected via cable.                               NEW PHONE TIME??? ;-/
