Abstract

A high capacity information forwarding system for use with originating screening offices of a telephone network. Apparatus periodically accesses a centralized data base within the telephone network and translates a predefined telephone number dialed by a calling telephone station into a destination telephone number of a called telephone station. The apparatus, upon determining the information forwarding service capability of the called telephone station, stores the predefined and translated destination telephone numbers at the originating screening office. Upon subsequent receipt of the dialed predefined telephone number, the originating screening office accesses the information stored therein and establishes a telephone connection between a calling telephone station and a called telephone station identified by the stored destination telephone number and forwards information of the calling telephone station thereto.
