Does anyone now if this change is simply not soldering the relay in (so I can add it myself), or has the circuit board been revised to omit the relay circuitry?


It's still listed as a feature in the OBi110 Data Sheet:

Logical FXS to FXO Relay          For Service Continuity in Case of VoIP Service Failure



When asked for an official comment, the Forum Moderator had this to say ....

or

ChaChing! ... We're making another 10 cents per unit by not including a relay.

I hope that's not the case.  The fail-safe relay is an important feature to those of us who rely on the PSTN line for our 911 service.  I hope it was just a miscommunication of some sort.  I guess we'll know if anyone else turns up with a recent OBi110 purchase who can't access the LINE Port without power.

I just received an Obi110 device today from Amazon that does not appear to have the relay installed. I have an email in to support asking about it. Hardware version is reported as 3.4.
