HOME PHONES
A landline (also known as land line, land-line, main 
line, home phone, landline, fixed-line, and wireline) is 
a phone that uses a metal wire or optical fiber 
telephone line for transmission as distinguished from 
a mobile cellular line, which uses radio waves for 
transmission.
CHARACTERISTICS
A landline can be hard-wired or cordless and typically 
refers to the operation of wireless devices or systems 
in fixed locations such as homes. Fixed wireless 
devices usually derive their electrical power from the 
utility mains electricity, unlike mobile wireless or 
portable wireless, which tend to be battery-powered. 
Although mobile and portable systems can be used in 
fixed locations, efficiency and bandwidth are 
compromised compared with fixed systems. Mobile 
or portable, battery-powered wireless systems can be 
used as emergency backups for fixed systems in case 
of a power blackout or natural disaster.
DEPLOYMENT
In 2003, the CIA World Factbook reported 
approximately 1.263 billion main telephone lines 
worldwide. China had more than any other country, 
at 350 million, and the United States was second with 
268 million. The United Kingdom had 23.7 million 
residential fixed home phones.[2]
The 2013 statistics show that the total number of 
fixed-telephone subscribers in the world was about 
1.26 billion.[3] The number of landline subscribers 
continuously decreases due to upgrades in digital 
technology and the conveniences that come with 
switching to wireless (cellular) or Internet-based 
alternatives.
