what do you call SUCH a telephone?

Hi,

What do you call a PSTN (public switched telephone network) telephone? Suppose the battery in your mobile phone is going to run down shortly :-) and so you may want to warn the person you are talking to saying e.g., "We are going to be disconnected soon because m y mobile just alerted me the battery is very low . Let me give you a PSTN call in a half hour, OK?"

HOw to say "to give you a PSTN call" in everyday English, not technical jargon.

Hope my question makes sense to you....

Thank you so much.
