If the answer is no, it is always a good idea to call your local phone company and check if they still support “pulse” dialing. If they do, you are all set to go. If they do not, your phone will not be able to place calls without a converter. We have internal converters that we install during assembly available for $79.95.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Dials * and # from your rotary phone to access computerized services.\u003cbr\u003e- Use legacy equipment on tone-only lines.\u003cbr\u003e- Compatible with VOIP services.\u003cbr\u003e- Provides last number redial functionality.\u003cbr\u003e- Adds 7 programmable speed dial locations\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs an alternative, we provide an option to use this phone as an extension of your cell phone. The XLink Bluetooth gateway is an device external to the phone that gets it’s power from a standard AC outlet. The cord from the phone will then connect to a phone jack on the gateway. When you pair the gateway to an active Bluetooth enabled cell phone, you will be able to use the vintage phone just like it was connected to a traditional landline. When someone calls your cell phone, the vintage phone will ring, and you will be able to dial out using the dial on the vintage phone. If you want to be able to call # and * using your rotary dial, you will also need to add the pulse to tone converter option.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe phone goes extensive through testing before to ensure it is in perfect working condition prior to shipping.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Automatic Electric","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43298537144543,"sku":"22037","price":899.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/8704\/4831\/products\/small_201-188.jpg?v=1657661734"},{"product_id":"type-40-ivory-finish","title":"Type 40 - Ivory","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHistory\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Automatic Electric Model 40 Monophone was introduced in 1938.
