Orange box
An orange box is a piece of hardware or software that emulates caller ID FSK signals to spoof Caller ID information on the target's caller ID terminal. It takes advantage of call waiting caller ID (also called off-hook caller ID) by mimicking the phone company's central office equipment and sending the call waiting tone followed by the audible caller ID data.
