Acoustic Coupler

In telecommunications, an acoustic coupler is an interface device for coupling electrical signals by acoustical means usually into and out of a telephone instrument. The link is achieved through converting electric signals from the phone line to sound and reconvert sound to electric signals needed for the end terminal, such as a teletypewriter, and back, rather than through direct electrical connection.
