To sound, as a bell or other sonorous body, particularly a metallic one.
To practice making music with bells.
To sound loud; to resound; to be filled with a ringing or reverberating sound.
To continue to sound or vibrate; to resound.
A sound; especially, the sound of vibrating metals; as, the ring of a bell.
Any loud sound; the sound of numerous voices; a sound continued, repeated, or reverberated.
A chime, or set of bells harmonically tuned.
The middle contact of a 3 conductor 1/4" (or mini 1/8") phone connector. Between the tip and the sleeve. Used in balanced wiring where the negative is connected to the ring, positive to the tip, and the shield to the sleeve. In stereo headphones, the tip carries the left signal, the ring carries the right signal, and the sleeve is the common (ground).
The alerting signal to the subscriber or terminal equipment; also the name for one conductor of a wire pair, designated by R. The other is called tip, or T. See also tip.
A set of bells, numbering 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, or 12, hung for change ringing (See Change ringing). Mounted to each headstock is a wheel from whose grooved rim a rope extends to the floor below. When the rope is pulled, the bell is made to swing in an arc of slightly more than 360 degrees. The bells are so arranged that the suspended ropes form a circle. The great majority of rings are in the British Isles.
(1) An audible signal by a bell. (2) An application of current to ring a bell or operate an alerting signal. (3) That side of a two wire telephone circuit or loop which is connected to the negative side of a battery located at the telephone company's central office. It's comparable to the "hot" side of a residential lighting circuit.
A Local Area Network Topology in which data is sent from workstations via a loop or ring. One conductor of a pair (vs. tip)
To activate a called subscriber's telephone bell.
A LAN network where workstations are connected to form a loop. The method of access control is token passing, where data is sent from workstation to workstation around the loop in the same direction until it reaches its destination.
A point of electrical contact in a manual switchboard plug. It connects to one of the two wires in a two-wire transmission. The other point of contact is termed the tip. Although the manually switched line is obsolete, the terms are still used for line assignment purposes. Routed on a trunk-by-trunk basis through a matrix of incoming and outgoing trunks. RGB - Red-Green-Blue picture display format. RJ-11 - The plastic four-wire jack on a phone wire. RJ-45 - The plastic eight-wire ISDN jack.
(n.) A topology in which each node is connected to two others to form a closed loop. See also chain, Hamiltonian.
The second wire in a pair of telephone wires (the Tip is the first wire).
a characteristic sound; "it has the ring of sincerity"
(chemistry) a chain of atoms in a molecule that forms a closed loop
the sound of a bell ringing; "the distinctive ring of the church bell"; "the ringing of the telephone"; "the tintinnabulation that so volumnously swells from the ringing and the dinging of the bells"--E. A. Poe
sound loudly and sonorously; "the bells rang"
ring or echo with sound; "the hall resounded with laughter"
make (bells) ring, often for the purposes of musical edification; "Ring the bells"; "My uncle rings every Sunday at the local church"
a Circle is a Dead End Loop
a closed, non-self-intersecting loop
a massless loop in total due to the meons
Typically the red pair in a house cable. Used in combination with Tip to complete a phone circuit.
A network topology that connects network devices in a continuous loop.
(1) As in Tip and Ring, one of the two wires needed to set up a telephone connection. (2) A reference to the ringing of the telephone set. (3) Design of a Local Area Network (LAN) in which the wiring loops from one workstation to another, forming a circle.
A ring is a network topology or circuit arrangement in which each device is attached along the same signal path to two other devices, forming a path in the shape of a ring. Each device in the ring has a unique address. Information flow is unidirectional and a controlling device intercepts and manages the flow to and from the ring.
A network topology in which the nodes are connected in a closed loop. Data is transmitted from node to node around the loop, always in the same direction.
1) Ring-shaped contact of a plug usually positioned between, but insulated from, the tip and sleeve. 2) Audible alerting signal on a telephone line. 3) A network topology in which stations are connected to one another in a closed logical circle, with access to the medium passing sequentially from one station to the next by means of polling from a master station or by passing an access token from one station to another. Also called a loop.
A telephone ring is the sound generated when an incoming telephone call is received. The term originated from the fact that telephones notified the household of an incoming call by repeatedly striking a bell or bells, producing a ringing sound.
