What can you do with a telephone hybrid?
In (radio) studios, a telephone hybrid is commonly used. A telephone hybrid enables you to conduct a phone conversation via a mixing console with the connected microphone and headphones. This way, a caller can be involved in a radio broadcast. It is also possible to record a telephone interview using the telephone hybrid.
To connect VoIP telephony to a telephone hybrid, an Analog Telephone Adapter (ATA) is used. The ATA handles the conversion from IP to analog. The ATA features a network port and one or more analog telephone connections. Each analog line requires a VoIP account.
The functionality of the telephone hybrid remains the same when using an ATA in combination with VoIP telephony.
