non-dialable toll points

non-dialable toll points definition - telecom
A location that a caller cannot dial directly, but must call with operator assistance. Such locations are very remote and may be beyond the reach of cable systems and may be too low and sheltered to be reached via satellite, but can be reached via special radio circuits. In the United States, there remain a large number of non-dialable toll points, generally in deep valleys and canyons.
