analog phone |
0.06 sec. |
analog phoneThe original telephone technology, which converts air vibrations into an analogous electrical frequency. Unless a key telephone system, digital PBX or voice over IP (VoIP) is used, most homes and small offices still use analog phones, and the local loop is mostly analog. Likewise, the first cellular phone systems were analog and are still widely used as a backup system. All new cellular systems that are deployed are digital. See local loop, AMPS, TDMA, CDMA and cellular generations. How to thank TFD for its existence?

Historically,
telecommuting solutions have relied on the analog phone line as their
mode of operation. CEIVA frames connect to
an existing analog phone line, or optionally to a broadband or wireless
home network. Two RJ-11 voice
interface ports manage analog telephone connection: one FXS voice
interface to connect an analog phone for low-cost calling via a VoIP
service or VoIP access to the corporate LAN; and one FXO voice interface
for placing and receiving calls routed through the traditional telephone
service provider on the regular PSTN line. |
