Power Failure Transfer(All Versions)
Description
This feature provides telephone service to a limited number of SLTs during a
power failure. The SLTs are connected to the CO via a Power Failure Unit
(PFU).
In the event of a power failure, the power failure extensions have dial tone
directly from the CO; system features and restrictions do not apply.
Hardware Requirements
• Power Failure Unit (VA-43703)
• An SLT that will be connected to the PFU.
Considerations
• Up to four SLTs can be connected to one Power Failure Unit.
• If a call is in progress through the PFU when the power is restore d, the call
will be disconnected.
• For added protection against power outages, bac kup batteries can be
installed in the DBS. Backup batteries provide full telephone service and
system features to all DBS extensions for a limited amount of time.
With maximum traffic, the backup batteries last up to 40 minutes for the
DBS 40 and 72, and up to 30 minutes for the DBS 96.
