  • Patent number: 4081613
    Abstract: An arrangement for providing signalling to the lines of a telecommunications system employing non-metallic switching crosspoints such as a solid state switching network or time division switching network. In a system employing either type of network, line signalling such as ringing, coin control signalling, wire chief testing, and such other signals which are essentially high voltage signals cannot readily be transmitted through the switching network. The present system as disclosed provides an arrangement employing a common, multiplex highway between one or more signal sources and the line circuits. Operation of a switching element such as a relay in a line circuit selected by the common control completes a metallic path from the source bus to the selected line through closed contacts of the relay. In addition, signals of one or more different types may be multiplexed within a signal cycle to produce signals to a number of lines during the period when one line is being signalled.

  • Patent number: 4075430
    Abstract: An arrangement for providing signalling to the lines of a telecommunications system employing non-metallic switching crosspoints such as a solid state switching network or time division switching network. In a system employing either type of network, line signalling such as ringing, coin control signalling, and such other signals which are essentially alternating current or high voltage signals cannot readily be transmitted through the switching network. To switch a source of current such as ring current on a per-line basis to the line circuits normally requires considerable expenditure in additional switching hardware networks. The present system as disclosed provides an arrangement employing a multiplex highway between one or more signal sources and the line circuits. Operation of a switching element such as a relay in a line circuit selected by the common control completes a metallic path from the source bus to the selected line through closed contacts of the relay.

  • Patent number: 3962552
    Abstract: Disclosed is a stored program, computer controlled telecommunications system including as its sole switching network an end-marked, multiple stage matrix network with a line side and a supervisory side. Almost all control functions including line scan and rotary dialed digit storage are included in the computer program, this procedure being possible due to the lack of need for any in-network controls. Certain peripheral circuits have appearances on both the line and supervisory side, these including an auxiliary loop usable as an overflow path providing added possibilities for completion of a path through the matrix network. The auxiliary loop is only called in on calls on which a speaking path has been established and on which the original path through the matrix network has been dropped during a change in the nature of a call.
