Battery Backup Unit
6160-H-24-NG, 6160-H-48-NG
The Battery Backup Unit models are designed to provide uninterruptible backup voltage for TXRX Systems
signal boosters. The backup supply is provided by a pair of high capacity lead acid batteries and can maintain
full continuous operation of the signal booster for a minimum time period of 24 hrs. The unit has an integrated
battery charger and monitor system that maintains peak battery level when the main power source is present.
The system provides LED status indicators and auxiliary alarm connections for remote monitoring. When used in
conjunction with a Rescueline

signal booster, the battery backup system provides a fully NFPA 72 2013 / IFC
2012 system solution.
