Abstract

A twisted-pair telephone line is connected to a conventional telephone via a low-pass filter and equipment for receiving signals in an upper frequency range, e.g., 25-1000 kHz via a high-pass filter. The low-pass filter is primarily passive (to allow passage of line power, ringing and signalling voltages) but, to improve matching to non-resistive line and telephone impedances, at least the main part of the filter is flanked by impedance convertors in which amplifiers having an appropriate transfer function feed voltages back into the line via transformers through which power, ringing and dialing may pass unimpeded.
