8282 - TIDI Posey® - Nurse Call Cable, 12 ft

Posey® - Nurse Call Cable, 12 ft

Please note: All prices are for individual units.

The Posey® Nurse Call Cable (8282) is an essential integration component designed to connect Posey® fall monitoring alarms to a facility's central nurse call system. This extended 12-foot cable provides maximum flexibility for equipment placement, allowing caregivers to position the fall monitor on a distant wall, a bedside rail, or a mobile stand while maintaining a secure connection to the room's nurse call jack. By bridging the monitor and the central station, this cable ensures that fall alerts are transmitted instantly to nursing staff, even when they are not in the immediate vicinity of the patient's room.

Designed for the rigors of high-traffic clinical environments, the 8282 cable features a standard 1/4-inch (6.35 mm) mono plug that is compatible with most major nurse call systems. The extra length is particularly beneficial in larger patient suites or specialized care units where the distance between the patient and the wall-mounted call jack exceeds the reach of standard cables. This hardwired connection serves as a reliable fail-safe, providing a secondary alert notification that supports "No Fall" protocols and enhances overall patient supervision.

Key Features

• Extended Reach: The 12-foot length offers superior versatility in equipment positioning, accommodating large patient rooms and complex bedside setups.

• Centralized Alerting: Seamlessly transmits fall monitor triggers to the nursing station to facilitate immediate caregiver intervention.

• Universal Interface: Equipped with a standard 1/4-inch (6.35 mm) plug compatible with the majority of hospital and long-term care nurse call jacks.

• Enhanced Safety Redundancy: Provides a critical secondary alert path, ensuring notification even if the local bedside alarm volume is turned down.

• Robust Construction: Built with durable jacketing and reinforced connectors to withstand the mechanical stress of daily use and frequent repositioning.

Ideal Clinical Applications

• Large Patient Suites: Ideal for private rooms or VIP suites where the patient’s bed or chair may be located far from the nurse call wall interface.

• Intensive Care Units (ICU): Supports complex equipment configurations where fall monitors must be mounted away from life-support machinery.

• Quiet-Zone Initiatives: Enables facilities to reduce bedside noise levels by relying on remote notifications at the nursing station.

Contraindications: Do not use this cable if the facility’s nurse call system requires a different plug type or proprietary digital interface. Do not use if the cable shows signs of fraying, exposed wiring, or damaged connectors.

Warnings & Precautions: This cable is an accessory and does not function as a fall monitor on its own. Always verify that the connection between the monitor, the cable, and the wall jack is secure and that the nurse call system is successfully receiving signals before leaving the patient. Failure to test the connection may result in an unmonitored fall event.

Ensure the cable is routed in a manner that prevents tripping or entanglement with side rails, bed frames, or other equipment. Do not pull on the wire to disconnect; always grasp the plug housing to prevent internal damage. If the nurse call system fails to trigger during a test, check the cable for continuity and ensure the fall monitor is powered on and functioning correctly.
