Re: Training sequences in hybrid echo cancellers - Maurice Givens - Feb 14 5:38:00 2002



The hybrid is not connected until the connection is made when the called
is off hook. Therefore, the called party would hear the training
sequence. This is considered annoying and unacceptable by the carriers. Maurice Givens
(one of those G.168 authors)
