Abstract: The filtering circuit comprises a low-pass filter (L1, C2) which allows the filter to adopt a very high impedance value when the low frequency terminal to which the filter is attached is in the hung-up state. This does not lead to a large voltage drop when signals are provided across the isolation device.  The filtering circuit for a narrow-band terminal is used in a private installation, connected to a telephone line (L) consisting of a first transmission line (303) and a second transmission line (304) with an access network. The network allows simultaneous circulation of first signals corresponding to analogue and/or digital narrow band services, and second signals corresponding to wide band services. The device comprises a low-pass filter (L1, C2) which allows the filter to adopt a very high impedance value when the low frequency terminal to which the filter is attached is in the hung-up state. This does not lead to a large voltage drop when signals are provided across the isolation device. To achieve this, the filtering circuit uses non-linear devices such as triacs, connected in groups of components. The filter also includes branch connection for transmitting ringing tones and service signals to the low frequency terminal when these terminals in are in hung-up state.
