DAA Digital Audio Amplifiers Installation
The fiber cabling between these ports provides a Digital Audio Loop (DAL) for programming;
alarm, control, trouble, automatic audio messages, address and firefighter telephone data; and live
voice paging communications
When a fiber DAA is used only with other fiber DAAs (no other type of DAL device, such as a
DAA2, is present on the DAL), the DAL must be composed of either all single-mode fiber, or all
multi-mode fiber. Multi-mode and single-mode can not be mixed on an all-DAA DAL.

FFT Riser Connections
The Firefighter Telephone Riser connections (TB7) provide for the use of firefighter telephones
(FFTs) on an analog network. They are a means of connecting various FFT telephone control
modules and devices, such as FTM-1 modules, AFAWS, FPJ, or RPJ-1 telephone circuits to the
DAA.
The FFT riser may be wired in NFPA Class A or Class B configuration. VeriFire Tools must be
used to select Class A or Class B for trouble supervision. Class B 2-Wire configurations require a
3.9K ohm 1/2 watt end-of-line resistor (P/N R-3.9K).
There are two ways that FireFighter Telephones may be installed on a DAA FFT riser. Both
configurations have a limit of 7 active phones.
