Back in 2007 the POTS port on the Thomson modem (used till 2022) supported pulse.

All older pushbutton phones for UK & Ireland had a pulse/tone switch for aged exchanges with no DTMF support. One company I worked for in 1980s sold DTMF decoders for specific old analogue exchanges to BT and Eircom.
