Abstract

A telephone system that is useful for facilitating both voice and data communications uses an analog gate. An incoming data signal periodically enters the analog gate. A signal processing means receives the incoming data signal from the gate and an outgoing data signal turns off the gate. The signal processing means includes an automatic gain control for controlling the amplitude of the incoming data signal. The outgoing data signal turns off the gate preventing the outgoing signal from affecting the automatic gain control.
