Overview
The Model 271 Ground Start to Loop Start Converter links equipment ports intended for connection to ground start trunk circuits to loop start trunk circuits.
The Model 271 provides four circuits of ground start to loop start conversion. The unit is designed to be installed at the customer premises, adjacent to the equipment containing the ground start trunk ports.
The Model 271 can be powered with 24 Vac, –24 Vdc, or –48 Vdc. There are no switches to set or straps to cut; the unit automatically adjusts to the power that is connected.
The Model 271 is completely self-contained in a wall-mounted cabinet. Interconnections are made using a 25-pair plug. The Model 271 is FCC registered.
