The standard voltage for the telephone system is 48 volts DC. Ringing voltage is much higher, around 90 volts AC at a low frequency. When you place a load of about 600 ohms on the line, you are off hook or connected. Telephone ringer voltage is 50.5 volts at standing and -50.5 volts at ringing.
Switching Hierarchy The telephone system was originally designed as a hierarchy of switches that set up calls across COs, across LATAs, or across long-distance connections. This hierarchy is pictured in Figure T-6. Figure T-6 (see book, page 1227) The hierarchy can be traced back to the first phone systems.tructure of the Telephone Network The public-switched telephone network (PSTN) consists of transmission components, switching components, and facilities for maintenance equipment, billing systems, and other internal components.
