The telegraph on ships operated using electrical signals transmitted through wires, allowing communication over long distances. Ships were equipped with a telegraph system that included a transmitter and receiver, enabling the sending of coded messages, often using Morse Code. This innovation allowed for real-time communication with other vessels and shore stations, improving navigation and safety at sea. The system relied on a network of land-based telegraph lines to relay messages to and from ships.
