This is exactly what the Power Fail functionality of the EM-HDA-6FXO does.</P><P></P><P>You should be good to go with what you have :)</P><P></P><P>Hope this helps!</P><P>Rob</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 17 Aug 2007 20:15:59 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/other-collaboration-subjects/power-failure-options/m-p/800296#M136301 Rob Huffman 2007-08-17T20:15:59Z
