telephone networks

A telephone network connects people through a system of infrastructure that transmits voice signals. When you make a call, your phone sends an electrical or digital signal through cables or wireless signals to a local exchange, which routes it through various switches and transmission paths to reach the recipient’s phone. The network utilizes technologies like landlines, cellular towers, and internet protocols to ensure clear, reliable communication across short or long distances. Essentially, it acts like a vast, interconnected system that converts your voice into signals, guides them efficiently, and restores them as sound on the other end.
