I don't believe a telephone modem (eMTA) can deliver enough voltage to clang those bells on a rotary.
i hadn't thought of that .. hmmm , thank you .
a friend with one says it works , but maybe he can only call out , not hear incoming call .
cox probably doesn't care about folks with old rotary dial phones ..thanks
From what I remember about rotary phones on the POTS, rotary phones ran on DC power from a switch house. That's why they'd still work during power outages.
I'm sure there are tone-converters on the market to connect a rotary phone nowadays. Will you search for something?
yes , ok . now i'm beyond curious ... i'll have to get to the bottom of this ,
