CTPhone 1900 System Overview
CTPhone 1900 System Components
The components of the CTPhone 1900 system are:
• base stations
• CTPhone handsets
• CTPhone Controller (connected to analog line cards in the existing
PBX, Centrex or key system)
Figure 1-1 illustrates a CTPhone 1900 system connected to a PBX. Ana-
log lines in the PBX connect to the CTPhone Controller and provide a sig-
nal to the Base Stations. The Base Stations convert the analog signal to a
Radio Frequency (RF) signal for transmission to the handsets. The same
lines may be connected to wired extensions for users that desire both
CTPhone and wired extensions.

CTPhone Controller
Connected to analog lines from an office telephone system, the CTPhone
Controller provides an interface between the telephone system and
CTPhone 1900 system. The CTPhone Controller supports one or two
base stations; the configuration is determined by traffic and customer
application requirements.
