Dual-tone multi-frequency signaling (DTMF) is used for telecommunication signaling over analog telephone lines in the voice-frequency band between telephone handsets and other communications devices and the switching center. The version of DTMF that is used in push-button telephones for tone dialing is known as Touch-Tone, was first used by AT&T in commerce as a registered trademark, and is standardized by ITU-T Recommendation Q.23. It is also known in the UK as MF4.
Other multi-frequency systems are used for internal signaling within the telephone network.
The Touch-Tone system, using the telephone keypad, gradually replaced the use of rotary dial starting in 1963, and since then DTMF or Touch-Tone became the industry standard for both cell phones and landline service.[1]

The DTMF keypad is laid out in a 4×4 matrix, with each row representing a low frequency, and each column representing a high frequency. Pressing a single key (such as '1' ) will send a sinusoidal tone for each of the two frequencies (697 and 1209 hertz (Hz)). The original keypads had levers inside, so each button activated two contacts. The multiple tones are the reason for calling the system multifrequency. These tones are then decoded by the switching center to determine which key was pressed.
|DTMF keypad frequencies (with sound clips) |
| |1209 Hz |1336 Hz |1477 Hz |1633 Hz |
|697 Hz |1 |2 |3 |A |
|770 Hz |4 |5 |6 |B |
|852 Hz |7 |8 |9 |C |

    This had a max of eight different telephone lines. In 1892 the first set of commercial installation of automatic switching equipment using the step by step mechanism was made at La Porte in Indiana. Various calling devices were used for a number of years. Among these were lever operated pre-set devices, key sets of several types, and dials with holes in which a peg could be inserted to act as a stop for an arm which was pulled around and allowed to restore. In all the early systems, regardless of the device used, the signals generated at the calling station directly controlled the selectors. The rotary dial works on a pulse based system. The frequency of pulses is determined by the number on the dial which the caller selects. Using the manually turn dialer to a fixed angel where the finger releases it before the number arrives while spinning. While this occurs these causes the dial spin to return to the starting position.Inside the body of the phone a centrifugal governor ensures that the dial’s rotation is moderated to a constant rate, with a shaft on the governor turning a cam that opens and closes a switch contact. If the contact is open, the line’s current is stopped from flowing, thereby creating a dial pulse, while when closed, there is a constant flow of…

    Fixed line telephones was the main form of communication in 1877 and this was the case up to the time when cellular phone came into the world. Fixed lines are in every home and building today so everyone has the ability to have telephone and data service. To receive or transmit data over the fixed line a modem is needed on each end of the line. The modem takes the digital information and turns it into tones that have been specifically selected for the transmission over the telephone network. The modem on the other end is responsible for turning the tones back into the digital data. Modems transmit data over a telephone network that is designed for voice so the data rates were limited until digital subscriber line (DSL) was introduced. DSL utilizes the existing analog phone line so no need for new equipment other than modems that can convert the digital data into high-frequency tones along with a filter at the subscribers end to keep the DSL transmission from being heard on the telephone. The conventional modem operated at the frequency range of 300 to 3,000 Hz but a DSL modem will need to operate a higher frequency range which will allow for a much higher…

    Years ago, actually decades ago, phone calls were connected manually, by a PBX operator - an actual person. Since automation took the place of live operators, I don’t think most people have given much thought as to how they are actually able to make a phone call. You just pick up your phone, and dial the number, easy breezy. That’s exactly how it should be for the end user.…
