What were telex machines?

If you mean a telex machine, it has a keyboard like a typewriter and also has a printer. That is why it is also known as a "teleprinter". If you know someone you want to send a message to has a similar telex machine, you can set up a call to their "telex service number", just like a telephone call but with no speech. Then you can type in your message and the the telex machine at the other end of the line will print it out.

telex

The international telegraphic message-transfer service consisting of a network of teleprinters. Subscribers to a telex service can exchange textual communications and data directly with one another. Telex systems originated in Europe in the early 1930s and were widely used for several decades. The ability to conduct high-speed digital communication over regular telephone lines led to a decline in the use of telex, but it is still used as a data transmission service for applications in which high transmission speeds are not necessary or in areas where more modern data equipment is not available.

Is braodband faster than dsl?

Answer: Sometimes

There are many different packages available for cable and DSL. A high-dollar DSL connection is probably going to be much faster than the penny-pinchers cable modem.

Having said that, it has been my personal experience that a cable connection is usually a little faster than a similarly priced DSL connection.

What is the maximum throughput of ADSL?

Your top adsl speed is based up on different of factors.

Some of them are:

  • Distance between your local dslam and your router
  • Quality of your telephone line
  • Quality of your router
  • Using wifi access or not(since wifi is slower than using old fashioned cords)
  • Even your PC overall perfomance can increase or decrease your adsl speed(download or upload) since PC's with low ram capability or slow hard disk drives tend to give a bad influence to your maximum download adsl speed.

What was the purpose of the first telephone?

So people could communicate without too much labor. It was invented to make communication easier.

Identify some business value of telecommunication?

Telecommunication is important in a company for the purpose of quickly routing callers to the proper destination in an effort to properly handle the callers needs.

Many times customers or clients call a company without knowing exactly who they need to speak with. All they know is the problem or question they are calling about. A well designed telecommunication system will help the caller get through to the proper personnel.

In some cases callers don't need to speak to a live person. Telecom systems can also provide options to answer caller's questions in an interactive manner by allowing the caller to respond by using the touch tone keys on their phone.

A good telecommunication phone system will enhance the callers results and will also have a positive reflection on the company.

If you buy an iphone 3g can you just stick your ATT SIM card from your previous cell phone in it?

Hey

It depends on your location and your network For example, in the US, AT&T have a deal with Apple for a 2 year contract.

Now, you can always jailbreak your iPhone and then put in the other Sim card. You will retain your number. But I can't really say if your network will trace it or not.

What is DDI telephone number?

Not sure what it stands for but the term is used here in Ireland for Direct Dial Numbers.

For example, if a small company with say 20 employees, has only 6 phone lines, it can purchase say 20 DDI numbers as well from the telephone company, and provide one Direct Dialling Number to every employee. In this way customers and suppliers can ring people in the company directly, and the company uses 20 phone numbers with only 6 phone lines.

A PBX is needed in the company to distribute the incoming calls to the correct telephone handset.

Perhaps it stands for Direct Dial Incoming ?

Can you use a att sim card on a tmoblie phone?

No you can not. The reason is that carriers lock their phones to only be used on their service. The only way you may do this is to go to a T-mobile store and ask if they can unlock it. They may or may not.

There are also services online to unlock your phone, but it is not free.

Where was the Morse Code created?

Morse code was developed by a man named Samuel Morse. In 1844, the first message using this special code made of various sequences of dots and dashes or short and long signals was sent over a telegraph line between Baltimore and Washington.

In 1848, the code was adapted by a man named Friedrich Gerke and his version is the one that has become internationally accepted and used.

What equipment is needed to hook up DSL to a computer with Windows XP?

A modem, which you normally get from the DSL provider, is really the only thing you need (apart from a computer).

But it is recommended to get a home router/firewall as well, it gives basic protection against computer attacks from the internet and lets you hook up a second computer to the same DSL connection.

How did the telegraph influence long distance communication?

Needing rapid communication, railroad companies built telegraph lines along the railroad rights of way as the track was laid. The linkage made these lines easier to protect and maintain than the original First Transcontinental Telegraph lines.

What are the types of telephone calls?

There are various types of telephone calls that can be made. Below I will list some of these types for you.

Long Distance Calls

Local Calls

Three Way Calls

Conference Calls

Dial Around Calls

Collect Calls

Third Party Calls

When and where was the enigma code invented?

The Germans used the Enigma in WW2. It had a set of gears that when you pressed a letter on the keyboard, it seemed to randomly type another letter on the sheet of paper you were typing on. only if you had the same set of gears could you translate the code to English. The gears were interchangeable so you could create many different codes.

Can you use cable modem for ADSL connection?

No, a cable modem cannot be used for an ADSL connection. Cable modems are designed to work with cable internet services, which use coaxial cables, while ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) requires a DSL modem that connects via telephone lines. Each type of modem is specifically engineered for its respective technology, making them incompatible with each other.

What is the IP telephone system?

The IP telephone service also know as the Internet telephony or Voip, Voice Over Internet telephony, is a way of making calls over the internet. These calls are usually free and can save you money on long distant phone calls. There is a also a option to have video calls so you are able to see the person that you are talking to.

Italian inventer of a wireless telegraph system in 1895?

The man who invented the wireless telegraph in 1895 was Italian, Guglielmo Marconi. Stop cheating on your homework ;)
