The transmit and receive wires on a telephone. The terms were derived in the early days when operators manually plugged the line into a cord board (manual switchboard). In order to see if a particular extension was already in use, the operator touched the tip of the plug to the outer ring of the extension socket on the board. Known as "tipping," if static was heard, the line was busy.
