Emergency Transfer provides service to and from the local telephone company 
central office (CO) during a power failure or when service is impaired. Emergency 
Transfer is also called Power Failure Transfer; the terms are synonymous.

Emergency Transfer allows analog telephones (500- or 2500-type) to access the 
local CO and to answer incoming calls during a power failure.

Each DEFINITY ECS 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.
