Bell System Technical Journal was the in-house journal of Bell Laboratories. Bell Telephone Laboratories or Bell Labs was originally the research and development arm of the United States Bell System, and was the premier corporate facility of its type, developing a range of revolutionary technologies from telephone switches to specialized coverings for telephone cables, to the transistor. ...
It is most famous for Claude Shannon's paper A mathematical theory of communication which founded the field of information theory.

It is also notorious for an article in the 1950's which revealed the internal operation of the long distance switching system, which sparked hackers to develop the Blue Box. The term Hackers can refer to several things: Hacker - a type of person interested in exploration, usually of a computer or electrical engineering background. ...

This is economically significant in the BellSystem toll plant, where an average of 1.4 transmission links comprise a trunk.
In-band signaling systems tend to be more complex because of the need for protection against speech-generated signals, but the BellSystem type of in-band signaling provides protection adequately and economically by signal-to-guard arrangements in the signaling receiver.
Present standard voice-frequency signaling systems employ tones of 1600 to 2600 cycles and use all frequencies, except the signaling frequency, to guard against false operation of the signaling receiver on speech currents.
