AMTC RemoteLink IP Digital Media Player Installation and Operation Guide 5/24/2012 Page 6
Take the path of least resistance! Your RemoteLink IP player connects to
your phone system exactly the same way as any other music on hold
source. If you currently have a radio or CD/tape player playing on hold,
it’s probably connected with a cable plugged into its headphone output
connector. This cable probably has a 3.5mm mono male connector on
the end, which is the type of output connectors used on the RemoteLink
IP player. Simply remove this connector from the radio or CD/tape player
headphone connector and plug it into either ZONE 1 OUTPUT or ZONE
2 OUTPUT of the RemoteLink IP player. If the cable from the phone
system is plugged into an RCA female connector on the radio or CD/tape
player, you will need an audio adapter to convert the RCA male
connector of the existing cable to a 3.5mm mono male connector.
Contact AMTC Technical Support for assistance. If you are not sure what
kind of connectors you have or require, see illustrations below.

cable comes with an RCA male connector, because RCA female is the
most common type of MOH input connector found on phone systems. If
your phone system has a 3.5mm mono female connector, use audio
adapter 2 to convert the RCA male connector of the provided audio cable
to a 3.5mm mono male connector. Other possible MOH input connection
types you may encounter on your phone system:

arefully strip back approximately 1.5” of the vinyl outer jacket of the
cable. Inside you will see fine strands of copper wire surrounding an
inner vinyl-jacketed wire. Pull these strands away from the inner vinyl-
coated wire and twist them together to form a larger single wire. Then,
strip approximately 1” of the vinyl jacket from the inner wire, and twist the
strands of copper wire found inside together to form another larger,
single wire. Loosen the two screws labeled as the MOH input, loop each
