 POTS codecs have the disadvantages of being restricted to relatively low bit rates and being susceptible to variable line quality. ISDN and IP codecs have the advantage of being natively [[Digital data|digital]], and operate at much higher bitrates, which results in fewer [[compression artifact]]s. Special lines must be run to a location, however, and must be ordered well in advance of the event so that there is ample time for installation of equipment.  Since POTS lines are almost universally available, the POTS codec can be set up nearly anywhere with little or no notice.

 Codecs usually come in two types of units: [[rackmount]] for the [[studio]] and [[wikt:portable|portable]] for the remote.  Audio can be sent in either direction, and most can also pass low-speed non-audio data, allowing the remote [[DJ]] to control [[broadcast automation]] or other studio equipment via [[RS-232]].  Many have an [[automatic redial]] if the line should become disconnected.  The remote unit usually has some basic [[mixing console|mixer]] functions, while the studio unit usually has some kind of digital output.
-Some codecs can be configured to use ISDN, POTS or IP rather than requiring a different device for each network, while others are exclusively designed for POTS operation. ISDN and IP connections implement algorithms like [[G.722]], [[MPEG]], [[Advanced Audio Coding|AAC]], [[aacPlus]], [[Apt-X]] and [[AAC-LD]] (low-[[Latency (engineering)|delay]]), while POTS connections almost always use proprietary low bit rate algorithms. Consequently, while ISDN connections can usually be established between codecs from different manufacturers, POTS connections (and usually IP connections) can only be established between codecs from the same family. Some codecs can use [[GSM]] networks, and some have [[variable bitrate]] to compensate for poor connections.  It is sometimes possible to bond two POTS lines together for [[redundancy (information theory)|redundancy]] and [[fault tolerance]], and improved [[Bandwidth (computing)|bandwidth]].
