C-161 Repeating coil

1:1 ratio ring-thru coil for use between line and switchboard. Simplex tap provided on line winding.


Voice frequency ringing equipment


EE-100   Ringing equipment

Same as EE-101-( ) except only one 1000-20 cycle ringer. Replaced by EE-101-( )


EE-101   Ringing equipment (part of TC-24)

Two 1000-20 cycle ringers for use where 20 cycle signalling cannot be used over line. Operation normally from 110VAC supply. Has automatic transfer from AC supply to storage batteries. One EE-101-( ) required at each end of two circuits.

Carrier Telephone equipment


CF-1 
Telephone Terminal, part of TC-21

Four channel carrier telephone terminal. Part of spiral four carrier system. Provides one voice and three carrier channels using frequency up to 12kc. Provides one DC signalling circuit and on DC telegraph circuit on the two simplexes. Signalling circuit used in system maintenance. One or more telephone channels may be used for voice frequency telegraph TC-2; channel 3 is the first choice. Each telephone channel requires 1000-20 cycle signalling. Has built in transmission testing equipment and automatic transfer from AC power source to storage battery. Includes 100% spare tubes, protectors, fuses and vibrator.


CF-3 
Repeater, part of TC-23

Four channel carrier intermediate repeater used in spiral four carrier system. Arranged for DC signalling and DC telegraph operation over the two simplexes. Has built in transmission testing equipment, talking and monitoring arrangement for the voice channel, and automatic transfer from the AC power supply to storage batteries. Includes 100% spare tubes, protectors, fuses and vibrator.

CF-4 
Converter, part of TC-33.

Carrier converter for use with Telephone Terminal CF-1 or repeater CF-3 to provide 4 circuits over a single open wire pair. Operation is on a equivalent four-wire basis, one direction of transmission being 0-12kc and the other direction 20,8 to 32,2 kc. Provides two composited DC telegraph path. Includes amplifying, modulating, and demodulating equipment, composite set, built-in testing equipment, and automatic transfer from AC supply to storage battery. Includes 100% spare tubes, protectors, fuses and vibrator.


CF-5 
Repeater, part of TC-37.

Carrier repeater for use at intermediate offices on equivalent four-wire systems using Converter CF-4. Arrangement for composited telegraph. Has built in transmission testing equipment, talking and monitoring arrangement on Channel 1, and automatic transfer from the AC supply to storage batteries. Includes 100% spare tubes, protectors, fuses and vibrator.


CF-7 
Carrier Hybrid

Four wire-2 wire equipment used with the telephone terminal CF-1 and repeater CF-3 to provide 1 voice and three carrier circuits over a single pair. Operation in on a balanced two-wire basis using frequencies up to 12kc in each direction of transmission. Used principally on open wire pairs. provides two composited DC telegraph paths. Includes a repeating coil hybrid, adjustable balancing network, and a composite set. Requires no power. Includes 100% spare protectors.


EE-105 
Telephone unit

Telephone for use primarily by lineman to connect to voice frequency channel on line used for carrier operation. Contains EE-8 telephone unit, also filter to prevent mutual interference between voice and carrier channels. May be used to provide an intermediate bridged station on voice or carrier lines.
