Abstract
There is provided system and method for receiving speech signals via a plurality of speech lines and communicating the speech signals over a phone line. For example, the communication system comprises a modem, a multiplexor in data communication with the modem, and a plurality of speech codecs in data communication with the multiplexor. According to this aspect, each of the plurality of speech codecs receives a portion of the speech signals via one of the plurality of speech lines and encodes that portion of the speech signals to generate encoded speech signals, and wherein the encoded speech signals from each of the plurality of speech codecs are multiplexed by the multiplexor to generate multiplexed encoded speech signals, and wherein the modem transmits the multiplexed encoded speech signals over the phone line.
