Default WS19 vehicle cable reel

At the end of WW2 a number of British vehicles were fitted with cable reel to enable direct wired communication between individuals outside the vehicle and those inside the vehicle via their WS19 set. The drum would rotate to allow cable to be withdrawn when required and the cable could be wound back up when no longer needed via a manual winding handle on the drum. The attached picture of a Daimler AC shows said cable drum fitted to the back of the turret.

Does anyone have any information on this type of cable drum or the equipment used to connect it to the 19 set? According to the Daimler parts book the drum and boss had a part number of W2-WB4021 and the associated junction - remote control part number Z1-ZA10649/1.

Regards

Russell
