Landline (aerial)

A landline (aerial) refers to a traditional telephone connection that uses physical wires and poles to transmit voice signals. The "aerial" part indicates the use of external wires or antennas suspended in the air, often seen on telephone poles. This system connects your phone to a central exchange via copper or fiber-optic cables, enabling reliable voice communication without relying on cellular signals or internet. Landlines are known for consistent quality and security, making them a dependable choice for many homes and businesses. They require physical infrastructure and are less portable than mobile phones but offer stable, continuous service.
