  • Patent number: 4086438
    Abstract: Described herein is a system for automatically providing interconnections among a plurality of telephone lines serving a subscriber station all under the control of a remote caller. An incoming call to the system is automatically answered, and the incoming line is then connected to an outgoing line either immediately or in response to tone or pulse dialing signals dialed in by the caller. Upon receipt of dial tone on the outgoing line the caller can dial out a call thereon directly from his remote calling location. If dial tone persists on either line for a predetermined time all lines are automatically disconnected. By dialing his own number on the outgoing line and then hanging up, the caller can have the system call him back on the outgoing line, after which he can dial in control signals on the outgoing line to reconnect it to either the original incoming line or another line to dial out calls thereon.
