What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026
This transmitter detects incoming calls on a landline phone and sends a wireless signal to Medallion Series receivers elsewhere in the home, which can flash lights or vibrate to alert the user. It's designed for people who are deaf or hard of hearing and can't reliably hear a ringing phone — including those using TTY or voice carryover (VCO) phone setups. The transmitter itself plugs into a standard phone jack and runs on AA batteries, but it requires at least one Medallion Series receiver (sold separately) to actually deliver the alert. This works only with analog landline phone jacks, not VoIP-only or cell phone setups, despite the 'cell phone transmitter' name suggesting otherwise — the vendor reference text clarifies it connects to a standard analog phone line.
