Claims
- 1. A low voltage two wire to four wire telephone circuit converter apparatus comprising in combination
- a telephone means utilizing two wires to receive input signals and to transmit output signals; said telephone means having a transmit button to send voice frequency singals;
- a first and second means for amplifying connected in series, said first amplifying means receiving said voice frequency signals from said telephone means by means of said two wires therefrom, said first amplifying means amplifying said voice frequency signals and applying them to said second amplifying means said second amplifying means further amplifying said voice frequency signal to provide a transmit data out signal, said transmit data out signal being referenced to analog ground;
- a third and fourth means for amplifying arranged in parallel, said third and fourth amplifying means both receiving a receive data in signal, said third and fourth amplifying means each amplifying said receive data in signal and applying it to said telephone means by means of said two wire of said telephone means, and;
- a low voltage source to supply a low voltage DC signal to said second, third and fourth amplifying means respectively; and further including a signal adapted means connected to said telephone means to receive an alternating ring signal therefrom, and a signal converting means converting said ring signal to a ring transmit signal which is a constant logic one level, said signal adapter means receiving a ring in signal which activates said signal adapter means to indicate a telehphone call is incoming.
- 2. A low voltage two wire to four wire telephone circuit converter apparatus as described in claim 1 wherein said low voltage source provides a positive 5 volts DC.
- 3. A low voltage two wire to four wire telephone circuit converter apparatus as described in claim 1 wherein said signal adapter means includes a visual indicator means.
- 4. A low voltage two wire to four wire telephone circuit converter apparatus as described in claim 1 wherein said signal adapter means includes an audible indicator means.
