"Analog Zap channel" or more generally, "Analog channel" (since chan_modem, 
chan_phone, and likely chan_mgcp too) means any channel technology which does 
NOT present the extension as a single message.

Any technology which "streams" the numbers as they come when entering the 
dialplan will behave this way.  Most digital technologies (SIP, IAX, PRI, 
etc.) present the extension as a single message, so Asterisk sees 10 digits 
or 5 digits or however many digits you dial "all at once."

Clear as mud?  :-)
