  • History of the Emergency Communications Center
    History of the Emergency Communications Center Station X in 1964 The Emergency Communications Center, as it is known today, was first established in 1931 as "Station X" inside Cincinnati's City Hall; that marks the first time the city's responders were dispatched by radio to emergencies. Over the years, ECC's operations and technology have evolved significantly. The center has moved physically from City Hall to Eden Park, on to Police Headquarters and finally to "Knob Hill" in South Fairmont, where it overlooks Union Terminal and the city's downtown. The name of the center has changed several times - but the mission of ECC, getting help to people in Cincinnati, has been a constant for 90 years. Emergency Communications Before ECC The Cincinnati Police Department dates back to a night watch established in 1802, with the police force being organized in 1859. Shortly after the Civil War, in 1866, a telegraph system replaced the need for messengers running between police stations. This system linked stations and some public locations in the city. Telephones were adopted in 1879, which allowed for the installation of the Police Call Box in locations around the city. It also enabled officers to periodically check in with their station while out on patrol. The Greater Cincinnati Police Museum has call boxes on display and a history of their use on the museum website. The Cincinnati Fire Department was established in 1853, and in the late 1800s, a fire watchtower was manned to spot fires and ring bells to alert the city's firefighters. A Fire Alarm Telegraph Office served the city in the early 1900s, receiving alarms and signaling fire companies.

  • Historical Timeline of Canadian Telecommunications Achievements
    Historical Timeline of Canadian Telecommunications Achievements July 26, 1874 Alexander Graham Bell discloses idea for a telephone to his father in Brantford, Ontario. 1880 Bell Canada is incorporated. February 1, 1881 Bell Canada installs its first public telephone in Lancefield’s Stationery Store, in Hamilton, Ontario. The telephone is not equipped with a coin collector and customers pay the storekeeper. June 11, 1881 Bell Canada successfully places the world's first international submarine telephone cable between Windsor, Ontario and Detroit, Michigan (US). 1885 Alberta's first telephone call, between Fort Edmonton and the St. Albert mission. August 10, 1876 Alexander Graham Bell's Double Pole Membrane Transmitter and Iron Box Receiver are used to transmit and receive the world's first one-way long distance telephone call from Brantford to Paris, Ontario. 1887 The first long distance call, between Edmonton and Battleford, Saskatchewan. December 7, 1895 The Northern Electric & Manufacturing Co., now Nortel Networks, is organized, as a spin-off of the Bell Mechanical Department. April 13, 1900 A common battery service is introduced in Bell Canada’s territory in Ottawa, Ontario. Instead of turning a crank on the telephone to signal the operator, the customer merely picks up the receiver. The batteries are removed from the customers’ premises to the central office. They are still there today, maintaining telephone service even during a power failure. 1903 Bell Canada becomes subject to the Railway Act of 1903 and changes to rates for telephone service must now be approved by the Board of Railway Commissioners for Canada. 1904 The City of Edmonton purchased the Edmonton District Telephone Company.

CARTERFONE: MY STORY Nicholas Johnsont Abstract Thomas Carter invented the "Carterfone"-an acoustic coupling device that enabled the connection of a telephone handset to a radio transceiver.' AT&T, the dominant telephone company at the time, advised its customers that the Carterfone was a prohibited "interconnecting device" under FCC Tariff No. 132, which essentially made it unlawful for telephone subscribers to connect their own equipment to AT&T'S telephone network.2 Carter brought suit against AT&T in federal court, alleging that AT&T'S warnings to its3 customers constituted a violation of the Sherman Anti-Trust Act. Carter'ssuit ultimately culminated in the FCC's landmark Carterfone decision.4 In Carterfone, we held that "applicationof [FCC Tariff No. 132] to bar the Carterfone in the future would be unreasonable and unduly discriminatory... and that the provisionsprohibiting the use of customer-provided interconnecting devices should accordingly be stricken.

  • Telephone Dialling Codes
    TELEPHONE DIALLING CODES After the invention of the telephone by Alexander Graham Bell in 1876, telephone calls were "connected" by "operators" in "exchanges" by plugging a cable into a socket to link the lines serving the caller and the call destination. Twenty years later, telephones started to be available with rotary dials which the caller used to select the number of the call destination. Electro-mechanical switching systems devised at the same time came into use a further ten years later, but manual switchboard operators were still connecting calls in remote exchanges in the early 1980s. The electro-mechanical switching systems (which continued as the principal technology until the early 1970s) imposed a limitation on the speed of dialling a digit. Dialling a complete ten- digit telephone number could take up to ten seconds, during which hardware resources had to be dedicated to an electrical circuit. The time to dial a digit was directly proportional to the numerical value of the digit, with the exception of zero, which required ten pulses in one second. In cities, telephone exchanges were given names which provided a mnemonic (easily memorable) code such as WHI (Whitehall) for the governmental district of London or PEN (Pennsylvania) for the area around Penn station in New York. Each exchange could support 10,000 customers who were allocated numbers between 0000 and 9999 to create a 7 digit sequence (eg WHI 1234). In towns and rural areas, a similar system was applied without the mnemonic, usually limited to 6 and 5 digits respectively. The British system of mnemonic exchange names endured until 1968, when the alphabetical codes were converted into numerals according to the corresponding digits on the rotary dial (eg Whitehall, WHI, became 944).
