Abstract

An acoustic feedback suppression system, particularly for auxiliary ringers in socket telephone systems, comprising a first terminal and a second terminal of a telephone line, an internal ringer, and an auxiliary ringer that is connected between the first and second telephone lines. The system comprises an activation circuit adapted to activate first and second switching circuits to reduce the voltage at the terminals of the auxiliary ringer, the activation circuit being controlled by an activation signal generated by a control and signaling circuit when a user dials a telephone number.
