Red handset cord for a trimline phone. It will not color match perfectly but it is pretty close. Works on trimline models 205 210 210M 220 230 230M rotary dial 500, 554, touch tone 2500, 2554, Princess, Cortelco / ITT 2500E 2554E and many other phones.

This is NOT the original Western Electric red (no longer in production). It is a cherry red made by Cablesys. New in a plastic bag.

NOTICE the pictures. The mickey phones and the 2500 (standard desk) phone best show the difference between the WE red and this cherry red cord. The original WE cord was more of a dull red. This one has more of an iridescent tint to it.

Not compatible with: Crosley and many of the Coca Cola phones. It will work with any phone that has the modular "clip in" connector. Crosley and many of the Coca Cola phones have at least one end of the cord "hard wired" inside the phone or handset.

This cord works on any phone with a modular connector. Some trimline phones over 30 years old used a special cord that requires a tool to replace. Other phones over 30 years old used hard-wired (aka spade tip) cords. If your cord simply "clicks" in place, this cord will work fine.

Length: Relaxed the curly part of this cord is about 40 inches long, NOT 25 FEET. This manufacturer calls it a 25 foot cord because 25 feet of material is goes into the curling machine. This naming scheme is confusing, but it's the industry standard.

25 foot cords should not be used on desk phones unless precautions are taken. The cord needs to hang by its own weight to keep the coils from tangling. This holds true for any manufacturer. De-tanglers won't help.

A high quality cord, made in China with gold plated contacts. It is not OEM (original equipment manufacturer). It is guaranteed to work on the phones listed.
