Western Electric 17 Station 1A2 KTU Style Common Talk/Selective Signal Dial Intercom Unit.
This ready to plug-in and use System would make a great Home/Business Retro Style Intercom, or a Vintage Telephone Collectors dial telephone show piece. Another application could be a Demonstration unit for an Educational Museum Display.

One Link with Common Talk Path.
The Unit is a complete, functional, seventeen code, Western Electric 6A Selector only intercom system with Dial Tone, Interrupted Ringing, Ring back tone, & Ring Trip. It is a common talking path, selective signaling system. It works with most Legacy 2-wire Tip & Ring rotary (Pulse) dial Telephone sets. Tone dialing is not supported on this System.
Extension ringing is done over tip & ring (green & red) wires with 20 Hz ringing current.
Single digit and two digit dialing is used. The station codes are 3-8 & 0 plus 21-20. Digit "9" is used for Outside line access.
The System is made up of a Western Electric 207C & 216A KTU as the basic dial selector control. A custom tone generator KTU is equipped to provide system tones.

The text W.B. has quoted is from the listing.
I wouldn't have looked without the link on this thread, I don't always have time to do more than a one click view.
That's pretty interesting. I like the new hive lamps, nice set up.
