Functionality transfer from a public telephone to a remotely connected Server

摘要

The communications system includes a public telephone (etaT) and a transformer station (TS) connected with it. The transformer station is incorporated in a power supply network and is connected with a communications network (KN). A server (SV) is connected in series to the public telephone in the transformer station. Communications-specific tasks are performed in the public telephone, and transmission-specific tasks are performed through a background system in the server. A network terminal may be incorporated in the network instead of the transformer station.
