The science of translating sound into electrical signals, transmitting the electrical signal, and then converting the signal back to sound.
Telephony is the technology associated with the electronic transmission of voice, fax, or other information between distant parties using systems historically associated with the telephone. See also: ETel
The technology associated with the electronic transmission of voice, fax or other information between different parties. Internet telephony is the use of the Internet, rather than the traditional telephone company infrastructure to exchange spoken or other telephone information.
The science of translating sound into electrical signals, transmitting them, then converting the back into sound. Various hardware and software applications exist which provide telephony, including the Selsius-IP PBX.
Science of converting sound into electrical signals for transmission.
Generic term describing voice telecommunications.
The science of transmitting voice, data, and multimedia signals over vast expanses. The word comes from the Greek meaning "far sound".
The science of converting voices and other sounds into electrical signals which can be transmitted by wire, fiber or radio and reconverted to audible sound upon receipt.
The use or operation of an apparatus or device for the transmission of sounds between distinct, separate points (can be with or without connecting wires).
transmitting speech at a distance
Taken from the Greek root words meaning “far sound,†telephony means the process of converting or transmitting voice or other signals over a distance, and then re-converting them to an audible sound at the far end.
The conversion of audio to electrical signals that are transmitted over copper wire or radio waves. With respect to the Internet, services that use computer networks to transmit voice with data.
Technology associated with the electronic transmission of voice, fax and information that has traditionally been done through phone lines. Internet telephony is the use of the Internet to transmit this information rather than the phone system. Since Internet access is available at local rates, a long distance call is less expensive when done online. Return to .
The process of converting sounds into electrical impulses for transmission over a connecting medium such as wires, fiber optics or microwave. Telework Telework (also called telecommuting) is working at home or a satellite office, or a telework center near home instead of working at the main office or place of business.
The branch of telecommunications which incorporates the transmission and reproduction of speech.
The science of transmitting voice, data and video over a distance greater than you can transmit by shouting.
Design and manufacture of telephone equipment; transmission of sound by electrical means between distant stations.
A term used to refer to telephone lines, trunks, circuits, related equipment, and the information (voice, fax, and data) that is transmitted over them.
The science of translating sound into electrical signals, transmitting the signals, then converting them back into sound.
Telephone technology - The conversion of sound into electrical signals, its transmission to another location, and its reconversion to sound with or without the use of connecting wires.
The word used to describe the science of transmitting voice over a telecommunications network.
Technology that lets users use a PC to make and receive telephone calls. Telephony software often includes features such as voice mail, fax, auto dialing, and on-screen messaging.
An adjetive that covers a multitude of communications issues, telephony has recently permeated the world of small computing, as add-in boards that combine the functions of modems, sound boards, speakerphones, and voice mail systems have begun to proliferate.
The science of translating sound into electrical signals, transmitting them, and then converting them back to sound; that is, the science of telephones. The term is used frequently to refer to computer hardware and software that performs functions traditionally performed by telephone equipment.
Transmission of speech to distant places.
The use or operation of systems for the transmission of voice or data communication between separate points.
The use of operation of systems for the transmission of voice or data communications between separate points.
A term used to describe the science of transmitting voice over a telecommunications network.
A term used to describe the technologies of transmitting voice over electronic media. Telephony is a subset of telecommunications.
The science of transmitting voice, data, video or image signals over a distance greater than what can be transmitted by shouting.
The use or operation of an apparatus for transmission of sounds between widely removed points with or without connecting wires.
Pronounced tell-eff-a-knee, translation of voice, data, video, or image signals into electrical impulses that can be sent long distances.
The science behind telephones: sound translated into electrical signals which is transmitted and then translated back into sound. This is also used to refer to computer hardware and/or software that functions like telephone equipment. See also Internet Telephony.
Transmitting voice or digital information between two parties by using the telephone or telephone-related technology.
the integration of transmitting voice, data and video through the use of a computer network.
A generic term of voice communications.
The science of communication by telephone.
Originally meaning voice (analog) communication by telephone (land line), this term has come to encompass virtually all of telecommunications, because virtually all of telecommunications can be done over or while connected to a telephone line.
Telephone technology (voice, fax, or modem transmissions) based on the conversion of sound into electrical signals or wireless communication.
Telephony is the electronic transmission of data and voice.
Area of telecommunications which deals with the transmission and reception of speech.
The term used to indicate communication of spoken information through electrical signals carried by wires or radio waves.
Converting sounds into electronic signals for transmission.
Refers to computer hardware and software that performs functions traditionally performed by telephone equipment (like voice mail or fax services).
Telecommunications system involving the transmission of speech information, allowing two or more persons to communicate verbally.
In telecommunication, Telephony (IPA pronunciation: ) encompasses the general use of equipment to provide voice communication over distances, specifically by connecting telephones to each other.
