环路点（loop start）线路和接地点（ground start）的区别

 1,Loop-start signaling:
   When loop-start signaling is used, a router's FXO interface looks like a phone to the switch (private branch exchange (PBX), public switched telephone network (PSTN), Key-System) it connects to. The FXO interface closes the loop to indicate off-hook. The switch always provides a battery so there is no disconnect supervision from the switch side. Since a switch expects a phone user (example of an FXO interface) to hang up the phone when the call is terminated (on either side), it also expects the FXO port on the router to hang-up. This "human intervention" is not built into the router. The FXO port expects the switch to tell it when to hang-up (or remove the battery to indicate on-hook). Because of this, there is no guarantee that a near-end or far-end FXO port disconnects the call once either end of the call hangs-up.

2,Ground-start signaling,例如：
   Ground-start signaling can be used on the FXO port of the router if the switch is capable of providing a ground-start connection. When configured, the switch removes the ground from the connection and the FXO port goes on-hook.

loop start线路通过闭合电话机上的电路
可以发送摘机信号。当用户用户摘机时，电流就通过闭合的钩键从环路侧的电池流出，吸合线
路继电器并给它供电。线路继电器的触点闭合就表示用户想获得服务。一个叫作“线路搜寻器”
的C O开关提供拨号音并把用户连接到C O交换设备以及可用的电路上。
用于本地环路上把P B X连接上C O的ground start线路实际上只是部分的在一直运行。环路侧
接地就导致了电流只流过线路继电器的一半。当P B X需要连接时， C O线路搜寻器就发送拨号音
并提供到C O交换设备的连接。当检测到拨号音时，接地触点就被打开，而且线路的其他部分立
即开始工作。

 

loop-start—(default)：循环开始（loop start），用在家庭电话或者落地处。

ground-start—使用接地和当前的检测器，用在连接PBX和中继。
