How does Cable Telephony work?
Cable telephony uses telephone central offices similar to those of traditional telephone services. Only the way in which your home is connected to the network is different. Rather than using a pair of wires, cable telephony uses the same coaxial cable that carries television and Internet signals. A Videotron technician installs a multifunction cable modem in your home that serves both for telephony and for Internet, if you are also subscribed to this service. The cable modem converts the signals from your telephones and sends them to our network, which is made up of coaxial cables and optical fiber. The signals are then reconverted and sent either to another subscriber or to other telephone networks, depending on the party you are calling. You do not have to install anything: a Videotron technician takes care of everything for you.
