Emergency Transfer

Emergency Transfer provides service to and from the local telephone company CO during a power failure
or when service is impaired. Emergency Transfer is also called Power Failure Transfer; the terms are
synonymous.
Detailed description
Emergency Transfer allows analog telephones (500- or 2500-type) to access the local CO and to answer
incoming calls during a power failure. Each server cabinet supports Emergency Transfer panels via the
AUX connectors on the rear panel. The transfer is initiated when:
•
a transfer panel or associated cabinet loses power.
•
someone manually activates the Emergency Transfer switch on the associated maintenance circuit
pack.
•
the software determines that service for that cabinet is severely impaired.
You cannot activate any other system features during a complete system power failure.
Emergency Transfer panels are available in multiples of five telephones, which may be pulse-dialing or
touch-tone phones. You must use pulse dialing if the CO accepts dial pulses only. Each telephone can be
connected to a separate CO.
When your system is not in Emergency Transfer mode, transfer phones can be used as regular telephones.
