Backup / reserve power

You can configure reserve power using an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). The Option 11C Mini system does not include the UPS. The Option 11C Mini does not support battery backup.

Power failure transfer occurs when the main power to the Option 11C Mini is cut off. When this power interruption occurs, the Power Failure Transfer Unit (PFTU) connects pre-determined analog telephones directly to the Central Office (CO) trunks. The PFTU is capable of supporting a maximum of five or eight telephones, depending on the PFTU used.

Data backup and restore methods

The Option 11C Mini provides several methods of backing up customer-configured data. These methods are in one of the following categories:

•on-site backup

•remote backup over a modem connection

On-site backup

You can perform three different types of on-site backup using Overlay 143. You can backup customer data from the database in use to one of the following:

•Primary Flash Drive

•Backup Flash Drive

•external Software Delivery card (PCMCIA)

Remote backup

You can perform remote backup in Overlay 143 by using the Customer Configuration Backup and Restore (CCBR) feature. The CCBR feature allows you to backup customer-configured data to an external IBM-type PC or a Macintosh computer over a modem connection. For more information about the remote backup feature, refer to the Customer Configuration Backup and Restore Guide (553-3011-330).

You can perform both the on-site and remote methods of backup during normal system operation.
