The PF-6A can be configured to operate when power is lost or from an opening/closing
of an alarm contact or manual closure.
Alternatively, the PF-6A can be used to convert six incoming ground start lines to loop
start lines. This accommodates installation of telephony equipment requiring loop start
lines (example: key systems, call sequencers, answering machines, voice mail, etc.)

• Transfers six C.O. trunks directly to the
designated analog station phones
• Stackable to increase capacity
• Allows user to receive calls, as well as make
calls during power or system failure
• Compatible with loop start lines or 48V ground
start lines
• Automatic ground start converter eliminates
"ground start buttons"
• Power restoration will not interrupt calls in
progress
• Operates on power failure or normally open -
normally closed alarm contacts

The PF-6A power failure bypass system makes it
possible to receive calls during phone system and
power outages. The PF-6A bypass unit connects
6 pre-assigned single line station phones directly
to user-assigned C.O. trunks. A built-in ground
start converter permits outbound calls from stan-
dard phones.
When the system is restored, calls in progress are
not lost. The PF-6A bypass unit will reconnect
phones to their station circuits after they become
idle.

  • Page 3 A. Power Fail Bypass Unit The first six C.O. lines should be interfaced with the PF-6A as shown in the chart to the right. The PF-6A is sensitive to the polarity of the incoming telephone lines, even when using loop start lines. There is a feature in the PF-6A that keeps a “power fail”...
  • Page 4 Note: The PF-6A can ONLY be used to convert ground start lines to loop start. It can NOT convert loop start lines to ground start.
