Analog telephone schematic. Having all sorts of acronyms the telephone system terminology can become confusing if you dont understand the following. In fact you can easily create your own intercom system using two telephones a 9 volt battery or some other simple power supply and a 300 ohm resistor that you can get for a dollar at radio shack. Plain old telephone service pots refers to the standard low speed and limited bandwidth 180 to 3200hz analog service used to deliver telephone services to homes and businesses. Not only is a telephone a simple device but the connection between you and the phone company is even simpler.
Connect telephones in series or parallel and feed suitable operating current about 20 ma to them through resistor from power supply. In real life the impedance of the telephone line or telephone is not exactly 600 ohm and the transformer has its losses. This schematic is basically a very safe one. Telephone sets ordinary analog ones have only 2 wires.
You can wire it up like this. An ata is often built into a small enclosure with an internal or external power adapter an ethernet port one or more foreign exchange station fxs telephone ports. Current modulation on a twisted pair of wires is used to communicate the. Signal isolation from line impedances etc.
Fuses are not necessary for proper function.
