LOUIS e KANSAS CITY e SEATTLE e LOS ANGELES e SAN FRANCISCO The grey-green sloping front of this switchboard, the simple lines of the cabinet—even such little de- tails as the “finger-fitting” key handles—all make this the r7ght PBX for the modern office . . . For any subscriber needing up to 20 telephones, and desiring a ‘‘full-time” attendant, you’ll render a real service by installing Automatic’s new Cord- less PBX Switchboard! Two sizes—10 lines, 4 trunks, 5 connecting circuits; and 20 lines, 5 trunks, 5 connecting circuits. Can be supplied for 24- or 48-volt operation, and for use on automatic, manual, or magneto central-office trunks. A standard desk-type telephone is used as the attendant’s instrument. CAPACITIES OPERATION “Cordless” operation completes any desired connection (trunk- to-line, line-to-trunk, or line-to-line) by simple key operation. Each trunk terminates on a vertical group of three keys (red), with a green “calling” lamp above. Each line terminates on a similar group of three keys (green), with a white “calling” lamp above. The attendant’s telephone terminates on another group of keys (white). Operation of the proper keys quickly intercon- nects line, trunk and attendant’s telephone as desired. Super- visory lamp (red) shows when call is completed. Panel equip- ment is escutcheon-mounted for easy maintenance; cabinet may be removed by loosening three screws. Operation and ringing current may be supplied from the central office, or locally. On trunk calls, transmission current is provided from the central office, thus permitting “through” supervision. Turn keys for battery cut-off and night alarm are located at the right-hand end of the panel, together with a gen- erator key, which permits use of the hand generator in case of failure of ringing current. TRUNK HOLDING—Provision is made for holding incoming trunk calls. NIGHT SERVICE—During the night, or when the switchboard is left unattended, each of the central-office trunks may be con- nected straight through.to a PBX station, to receive or originate calls on that trunk. THE NEW CABINET of the Cordless PBX is constructed of red birch, especially finished to complement the furnishings of the modern office. When requested, the cabinet can be made of mahogany, oak or walnut with a choice of finishes. Where line resistances (including substation equipment) do not exceed 200 ohms, lamp signals in series with the lines are used. For lines of greater resistance (up to 500 ohms) line relays are furnished. Operating limits are 400 ohms for exchange trunks, and 700 ohms for any combination of line and trunk.
