Service Applications

Private Wire :

Available as 2-wire or 4-wire options. Private Wire is used for voice, telegraph, and alarms or telemetry devices. 

Data Circuit :

Available as 2-wire or 4-wire options. Data Circuit can be used for data transmission when used with analogue modem.

Hotline :

Hotline, also known as a Central Battery (CB) line, provides a 2-wire non-dial dedicated speech link between any two points within Singapore island. 

Product feature specs as follows :

1) Hotline is a permanent physical connection between two valid business locations which is connected to analogue phones (analogue phones are supplied by the customers)

2) The Hotline service enables the called party’s telephone to ring when the calling party lifts up the handset

3) Connection between the two parties will be established when the called party’s handset is picked up during ringing. The ringing will stop when the call is established

4) Both parties must replace the handsets for the hotline to be in a ready-to-call condition again

If the call is not answered, the ringing will stop after the called party replaces the handset.
