Audio will switch back to the privacy handset when the RJ-11/POTS hangs up.
6.
The call is terminated via the 9575A keypad or by the connected party hanging up.
1.
The docked 9575A and connected RJ-11/POTS will ring upon an incoming call.

The call can be answered by picking up the RJ-11/POTS or via the 9575A keypad. Answering via keypad is required for
privacy handset use.

POWER LOSS WARNING!
If power to the docking station is lost or removed while on a voice or data call, there’s a possibility that the 9575A
will NOT terminate the call – nor will the docking station be able to terminate the call when re-powered. The
docking station will blink the ERROR indicator and the message “SEARCHING…” will be displayed on the intelligent
handset when in this condition. Additionally, the 9575A will be unresponsive to any key press including the on/off
button. The call MUST be terminated at the remote end to regain control of the 9575A. Alternatively, the 9575A may
be removed from the docking station so the battery pack on the 9575A can be removed and reinserted, forcing a
hard reset of the phone.
IMPORTANT COMSEC NOTICE:
This product was designed for making secure calls via the Iridium 9575A satellite phone. The 9575A is certified by
the National Security Agency (NSA) to provide end-to-end security for voice and data communications up to “Top
Secret” classification. This protection is ensured for the secure communications portion of use—from the handset
to the final destination.
Be sure to follow all applicable government secure call policies/procedures when operating your 9575A docking
station with a secure sleeve and Iridium 9575A handset. For more information on secure calls, contact your
organization’s Communications Security representative.
