Telephone apparatus including a modem.

摘要

Telephone apparatus (1) including a loudspeaker (7) and a microphone (8), a speech transmission network (3) that on the one side is coupled to the loudspeaker and the microphone and on the other side can be coupled to the telephone lines (4,5), and a modem (14) having an input and an output, wherein the modem for AC-currents is directly coupled to the speech transmission network and for DC-currents is isolated from the speech transmission network. By these features it is possible to provide a telephone apparatus having the possibility of data-communication with as little as possible additional components, so that the telephone apparatus can be very low priced. <IMAGE>
