  Do you have any idea what kind of signals are being passed along
the 3 pairs of wires? I don't have that particular model and I'm not sure
I can find a manual for it offhand. But I'm familiar with some of the
standards for long-haul wiring. I just need to know if it's digital or analog
signals on the wires.
