I know a similar, not identical, topic has been thrashed about here
recently.

Does any currently available PBX transmit the loop interrupt signal
through to its POTS (2500-type) stations? Assume, for the sake of
sanity, that the telephone company central office does provide a loop
interrupt signal to us on POTS subscriber loops when the calling party
releases the call.

According to our research so far, neither the Vodavi nor the Mitel
SX-100/200 line provides this.

Is the search futile?
