[asterisk-users] is Power fail transfer possible with asterisk?
Hi. I have a client who wants some way that his analog phones can call out even after the power is out and the UPS has died -- some way that a phone can connect directly to an fxo or some such when power is gone. Any hardware around which can do this? I have heard of some ATA's which do this, do any of the channel banks have this capability? Thanks. -- Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it.

There have been transfer switches available since the dawn of Telephony, ( well, at least common Battery Telephony ) that will do just that. Look around, ask a real telephone man, or use Google. Or, use a simple DPDT relay run off any power source that fails when you want to make the transfer. John Novack John covici wrote: Hi.

If your provider is out, there's very little you can do. Perhaps a ham radio attached to a car battery?

OK, to clarify a bit, he wants to fix things so that all we are depending on are the pots lines -- I know if they go out you are gone. So what can we do in that case? on Wednesday 01/02/2008 Tilghman Lesher([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote On Wednesday 02 January 2008 17:10:05 John covici wrote: Hi.

There is ATA boxes with a port that you connect to a analog line and when SIP fails to register will it use the analog port. Some ATA boxes routes emergency calls direct to the analog port. I think that Sipura SPA-3000, http://www.sipura.com/products/spa3000.htm will cover your needs. on Wednesday 01/02/2008 Tilghman Lesher([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote On Wednesday 02 January 2008 17:10:05 John covici wrote: Hi.

When I saw the subject I thought the poster was maybe asking if was possible to transfer the live RTP stream from one Asterisk system to another in the event that power was lost - Original Message From: MatsK [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Sent: Wednesday, January 2, 2008 4:37:56 PM Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] is Power fail transfer possible with asterisk?
