System and method for adapting analog systems to communicate with packet networks

摘要

A system for adapting an analog system to a packet network may include an electronic signal adapter in communication with the analog system and packet network. The electronic signal adapter may be configured to convert information received in data packets from the packet network into dual-tone multiple frequency (DTMF) signals and single tone analog signals and to communicate the DTMF and single tone analog signals to the analog system. The single tones may have a signal strength below approximately -25 dBm. The electronic signal adapter may further be configured to receive and convert analog signals into digital data for communication in data packets over a packet network.
