What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

The Tactile Ring Signaler turns an incoming phone call into a vibration you can feel. A transmitter connects to your telephone or videophone, and when a call comes in it sends a signal to a pager you carry, which buzzes. The pager works from up to 200 feet away, so you can move around the home and still know the phone is ringing. It has 1,024 household code combinations, which helps keep nearby systems from interfering with each other. It's made for deaf and hard of hearing users who miss calls because they can't hear a ringer, and it only alerts you to calls, it doesn't amplify sound or help with the conversation itself.

What setup looks like

  • With a guide
    1. Plug the transmitter into the RJ11 telephone jack on your phone or videophone.
    2. Set the household code so the transmitter and pager match, and so neighbors' systems don't interfere.
    3. Carry the pager and place a test call to confirm it vibrates from the rooms where you spend time. Plan on about 20-30 minutes.
