Which code does this activity belong in?
Telephone Apparatus Manufacturing covers establishments making wire-based telephone and data communications equipment, including central office switching systems, cordless phones, PBX systems, telephone answering machines, and networking devices like routers and gateways. The boundary with Radio and Television Broadcasting and Wireless Communications Equipment Manufacturing is that the latter code covers wireless transmission equipment for broadcasting and cellular communications, whereas this code is limited to wire-based systems. Establishments manufacturing other communications equipment not involving telephone or data transmission apparatus are classified elsewhere.
