  1. dial telephone

    A dial telephone is a type of telephone that uses a rotary dial mechanism to enter phone numbers and establish a connection. The dial is circled with holes representing each number from 0 to 9. To dial a number, a user inserts their finger into the appropriate hole and rotates the dial to a fixed point, then releasing it causes the dial to return to its original position at a speed controlled by a governing device, sending a specific number of electrical pulses corresponding to the selected number. This technology was widely used before the invention of touch-tone dialing.
