Hello all,

I was on duty yesterday and had to go to another building that's being remodeled to check on a classified space and stumbled upon this old Bogen paging system... Just thought I might share it with you all. I thought it was interesting how they incorporated 25-pair cable.

The numbers for the switches aren't actually room numbers, they're the work center numbers mandated by Big Navy that every maintenance activity uses for their maintenance work centers. 310 = Line Shack, 110 = Power Plants (engine guys), et cetera.

Although I was the only one in the building, I unfortunately didn't think to try it and see if it worked. If I were to venture to guess, it probably does. The Navy sometimes has a way of clinging onto old things, which can be both good and bad. If it works, don't fix it!

Here are the pictures I took:
