The Quadruplex telegraph is a type of electrical telegraph which allows a total of four separate signals to be transmitted and received on a single wire at the same time (two signals in each direction). Quadruplex telegraphy thus implements a form of multiplexing. The technology was invented by Thomas Edison, who sold the rights to Western Union in 1874 for the sum of $10,000 (equivalent to $239,500 in 2021).

La kvarobla telegrafo tiel plibonigis formon de multiplexer. La teknologio estis inventita de usona inventisto Thomas Edison, kiu vendis la rajtojn al Western Union en 1874 por la kvanto de 10,000 usonaj dolaroj. La problemo sendi du signalojn samtempe en malaj direktoj sur la sama kablo estis jam solvita fare de Julius Wilhelm Gintl kaj plibonigita por komerca eblo fare de J. B. Stearns; Edison aldonis la kapablon duobligi la nombron en ĉiu direkto. La metodo kombinis diplex (multobligo de du signaloj en la sama direkto), kiun Edison estis jam inventinta, pere de Stearns Duplex (samtempa du-direkta komunikado. Ambaŭokaze, oni uzas saĝan komutilon. (eo)
- The Quadruplex telegraph is a type of electrical telegraph which allows a total of four separate signals to be transmitted and received on a single wire at the same time (two signals in each direction). Quadruplex telegraphy thus implements a form of multiplexing. The technology was invented by Thomas Edison, who sold the rights to Western Union in 1874 for the sum of $10,000 (equivalent to $239,500 in 2021). The problem of sending two signals simultaneously in opposite directions on the same wire had been solved previously by Julius Wilhelm Gintl and improved to commercial viability by J. B. Stearns; Edison added the ability to double the number in each direction. The method combined a diplex (multiplex two signals in the same direction), that Edison had previously invented, with a Stearns style Duplex (simultaneous bi-directional communication). In each case, a clever trick is used. Since telegraphs use a single wire, the current must flow through the signal (noise producing) relay on both ends (local and remote). For the Duplex, the challenge is simply to not have the local signal relay clack when the key is pressed but to clack when the remote is pressed. This is achieved by dividing the relay into two solenoid windings and feeding the local key's energizing voltage into the midpoint of these. Thus when the local key is pressed, the current divides equally in two directions. One of these goes through a relay coil then into a matched termination load. The matched termination load and relay coil are matched to an identical setup at the receiving end, to keep the current between the two solenoid coils as even as possible. The other half of the current is sent down the wire to the remote relay (which often switches the remote signal relay) and its termination load. Since the current flowing into this Y-shaped junction between the solenoids flows in opposite directions in the two local solenoids they sum to no net magnetic field and the local relay is not activated. At the remote end, the sent current flows through both solenoids in the same direction and into the termination load. Since current flows the same way in both solenoids the remote signal relay is activated by this local key. For the Diplex, a different trick is used. To send two messages simultaneously, one has two independent local telegraph keys. These are arranged so the battery is reversed in polarity on one of these. First note the challenge to overcome: the duplex solenoid as described above would not resolve which way the current is flowing. While the solenoid's magnetic field would be in the opposite direction, the induced ferromagnet in the iron bar would be attracted either way, closing the signal relay regardless of the current flow direction. The solution is to replace the iron with a permanent magnet, and the relay switch is replaced with a double pole switch. Now the permanent magnet senses the field direction and is pushed or pulled. When the permanent magnet north is repelled, the switch closes to one pole, and when the permanent magnet south is repelled the switch closes to the other pole. To make increase practicality, Edison found other additional relays were necessary to provide hysteresis that prevented the switch from being in-determinant or fluttering at the moment of current reversals and to send the separated signal to the appropriate sound emitter.
