POTS
Wired phone service
POTS is an acronym for postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, a condition where standing up causes an abnormally rapid heartbeat, dizziness, and sometimes fainting.
The autonomic nervous system fails to regulate blood flow properly when the body changes position.
POTS is also plain old telephone service—the traditional landline network, as distinguished from digital alternatives.
