- This is the spec in Norway! I guess it is international but I'm not quite
- sure.
- Phone onhook/offhook 48 Vdc. (no ac)
- Phone onhook ring incoming about 90 Vac (about 10-30Hz)
-
- The impedance is set to 600 ohms, so that's why you get those strange
- values when you measure. It depends on the internal impedance in each phone
- and on the line.
