AUDIBLE TONES
The FCT generates audible tones in your telephone set, thus
providing the same service characteristics as the one given by
the traditional fixed network.
The following table describes the nature of the main tones you
will get when using the unit. Other standard call progress
tones, such as busy tone, number obtainable or ring back tone,
are provided directly by the network.
Note: some tones can vary depending on your network
