scorpion 0 Posted April 21, 2008 The sound track to your post is from Styx! Too much time on my hands? You might be right! LOL! This thread does not have much to do with CCTV, but then again as everything migrates to IP, I am sure the new members would like to be up to speed on the lingo, the specs, and the DIY of IP. I am glad goo gul does not charge by the search!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RickA 0 Posted April 21, 2008 Lol you got that right, if they were charging by the search, I have a feeling I would really be in debt, almost the national type. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scorpion 0 Posted April 21, 2008 I wonder if anyone has figured out what the tip, and ring means on telephone equipment? I wait for some posts, then I will give the answer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
C7 in CA 0 Posted April 22, 2008 I think I know! But your answer would be written more eloquently then mine... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scorpion 0 Posted April 22, 2008 I have you down in my "know" list! Anyone else? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PHAND 0 Posted April 23, 2008 Do you actually want us to post the reply? Tip is just that... the TIP of the plug. Ring is the ring of the plug. Two separate conductors insulated from each other on a phono type connector commonly used on the old switchboards to connect a telephone call by an operator. No google.. Just a lot of reading as a kid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scorpion 0 Posted April 23, 2008 CONGRADULATIONS! DON PARDO, TELL HIM WHAT HE WON! I see alot of people out in the "field" that have not a clue what tip, and ring means, and yet they know how to hook it up a system to the old phone lines. It is amazing the words that we carry to this day when they are obsolete, such as "hit record". I notice on space ship movies that they carry the old sailing words, and traditions of the Navy.
