848 entered service when Central New Jersey demand for numbers outgrew the 732 supply. Today it sits side by side with 732 across the same neighborhoods, used by newer businesses, mobile lines, and second numbers issued after the older code filled. The two codes route identically, though 732 still carries the older brand weight.
