A POTS codec is a type of audio coder-decoder ( codec ) that uses digital signal processing to transmit audio digitally over standard telephone lines ( plain old telephone service , POTS) at a higher level of audio quality than the telephone line would normally provide in its analog mode. The POTS codec is one of a family of broadcast codecs differentiated by the type of telecommunications circuit used for transmission. The ISDN codec , which instead uses ISDN lines, and the IP codec which uses private or public IP networks are also common.

20-491: A different device for each network, while others are exclusively designed for POTS operation. ISDN and IP connections implement algorithms like G.722 , MPEG , AAC , aacPlus , Apt-X and AAC-LD (low- delay ), while POTS connections almost always use proprietary low-bitrate algorithms. Consequently, while ISDN connections can usually be established between codecs from different manufacturers, POTS connections (and usually IP connections) can only be established between codecs from

Audio can be sent in either direction, and most can also pass low-speed non-audio data, allowing the remote DJ to control broadcast automation or other studio equipment via RS-232 . Many have an automatic redial if the line should become disconnected. The remote unit usually has some basic mixer functions, while the studio unit usually has some kind of digital output. Some codecs can be configured to use ISDN, POTS or IP rather than requiring

Special lines must be run to a location, however, and must be ordered well in advance of the event so that there is ample time for installation of equipment. Since POTS lines are almost universally available, the POTS codec can be set up nearly anywhere with little or no notice. Codecs usually come in two types of units: rackmount for
