PCI doesn't currently consider telephones to be public networks. That's why they are okay with fax machines sending CC details, provided they are in a secure area and a few other non tech requirements. Not sure I agree with the practice, but it is what it is.

Never knew that. I assumed VoIP based telephony comes under PCI view.
