Image description

Oslo 1952. All over the country, approx. 60,000 people to get the phone. Oslo telephone facility (O.T.A.) has 20,000 on the waiting list. The development is small and people are irritable to stand in line to get a phone. Here we see from the cable intake for downtowns 1 and 2. In each lead cable there are 1000 lines with twice as many threads. The cables go up to the coupling room, over the large coupling rack where each wire has the subscriber's number.
